There is no charge for the vaccine and in contrast to many clinic sites, there are no long waiting lines.

Those who may receive the vaccine are: -Healthy students, faculty, staff through age 24,with no underlying medical conditions, -Healthy students, faculty, staff ages 25-49, with no underlying medical conditions who are caregivers/household contacts of infants less than six months, and -Health care provider students and faculty ages 25-49, with no underlying medical conditions. The vaccine is free of charge. It will be administered by Student Health Center staff and senior students in the nursing program. |
