To mitigate the risk of further spread of coronavirus (COVID-19), Mass General Brigham has determined that social distancing measures will be initiated wherever possible. As a result, we are asking all department leaders to implement measures that ensure continuity of operations while allowing for remote work or shift work in support of social distancing.
