Anchor Drop, July 21, 2020: What the PHUCC

Good morning, and Vanderbilt hired Tobias Funke to make the acronyms:

So VU's new contract tracing committee on campus is called Public Health Unified Command Center (PHUCC).

Ahhhhhhh...

Optional Musical Accompaniment

Yes, that’s correct: Vanderbilt went with an acronym that should have been run by Anchor of Gold first.

Students who test positive for COVID-19 must self-isolate as directed by the Student Health Center until they are recovered. To determine the risk of potential exposure to others on campus, the Vanderbilt Public Health Unified Command Center (PHUCC), a partnership between the School of Nursing Nurse Faculty Practice Division and Student Health, will conduct contact tracing with any student who has tested positive and will provide appropriate notifications across VU communities.
