Flu Vaccines
Getting your flu shot is one way to do your part to protect the health and the safety of the campus community. Since many of the symptoms of influenza and COVID-19 overlap, it is strongly recommended that all students, staff, and faculty be immunized with the seasonal flu vaccine.

Stay Informed
While many individuals typically get the flu vaccine mid-fall, the CDC recommends getting it earlier this year due to the similarities between the flu and COVID-19. Getting the vaccine now also promotes the earlier development of improved immunity to the influenza virus.
