ABSTRACT
During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemics, universities take responsibility for the health of their students and epidemic control. Our urgent recommendation focuses on four key questions of emergency management in universities following rigorous evidence-based approaches and provides timely suggestions to university managers, academic faculties and student affairs managers. We recommend universities during the COVID-19 epidemics should: 1) suspend offline lectures;2) provide proper health education on the disease;3) encourage face masks, however oppose using N95 masks on the campus;4) encourage hand hygiene and provide sanitizing products on the campus.
