Coronavirus Updates

First and foremost, it is our goal to maintain a safe workplace and encourage and/or adopt practices protecting the health of our employees, customers, and the general public and will continue to be an ongoing priority of Sho-Link and its member institutions.
We have been monitoring the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and will continue to track the situation and its impact on our employees, customers and communities. Sho-Link is also in regular communications with member institutions and public health officials related to the spread of the disease.
As we closely monitor the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) recommendations and guidelines, we are taking steps internally to ensure our employees are well educated, implementing safe practices and have the resources needed to sanitize work-spaces daily and help eliminate the spread of the virus.
