The University further encourages the students, faculty members and employees to familiarize themselves with designated evacuation routes, safety zones, and emergency response procedures. Together, let us uphold a culture of safety and preparedness within our campus.

UE Manila classes in all levels for October 14 and 15, 2024 (Monday and Tuesday), are suspended in light of Malaca帽ang Memorandum Circular No. 66 concerning the opening of the Asia-Pacific Ministerial Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction.

UE Caloocan classes and office work on both days will remain face-to-face, but leniency will be extended to those who will be coming from Manila or Pasay, and faculty members are advised to refrain from giving exams on both dates.

Please be guided accordingly. Thank you and take care, Warrior

If you are presently in an area affected by Vog, observe the following precautions and protective measures:

1. Check the air quality level daily. Through the Air Quality Management System page of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) website: https://air.emb.gov.ph/ambient-air-quality-monitoring/

2. Limit outdoor activities to what鈥檚 essential. Stay indoors to reduce exposure to vog and keep your doors and windows closed. If possible, run an air-conditioner or air purifier; both will remove the particulate sulfur compounds and acid gases from your indoor air.

3. Avoid physical activity when vog levels are high.

4. Mask up. When heading out is necessary, make sure to wear an N95 or KN95 face mask. If an N95 or KN95 mask is unavailable, a surgical mask may be used as a last resort. Regardless of outdoor activity, high-risk groups such as the elderly, pregnant, or those with asthma, lung, or heart disease, are advised to mask up. Ensure that the mask is properly fitted to form a seal around your nose and mouth.

5. Stay hydrated. Drink water regularly to help against throat irritation and nasal congestion caused by vog.

6. Avoid smoking, vaping, or using candles and essential oils as any of these may further compromise the air quality around you.

7. Keep your emergency kit on hand. Make sure to stock up on medications for allergies, asthma and flu. 

8. Seek immediate medical attention when deemed necessary, particularly for serious symptoms like difficulties in breathing, increased coughing or chest tightness.

Keep safe, Warriors!
