Decker Student Health Services Center
Ebola information
Though the risk of contracting Ebola is very low, Binghamton University is preparing at many levels in the event a suspect or confirmed case of Ebola occurs within the campus community. We are following the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines, working with SUNY and the local and state health departments, and practicing procedures to follow in the event a case is identified.
