University Health Services has announced plans for a large-scale H1N1 vaccination clinic this Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Southeast Recreational Facility.


The announcement follows a significant drop in influenza-like illness reported to UHS.
The 4,000 doses of vaccination will be available to all students ages 24 and under.  No appointment is needed for the clinic, but a valid student ID is required.


“Now that we have [the vaccine], our goal is to deliver as many doses as possible to [students] as quickly as we can,” Sarah VanOrman, executive director of UHS, said in a statement.  “By far, the most efficient way to do that is to hold a large clinic in a big space like the SERF.”


Free H1N1 vaccinations are also available to students at the main UHS location on East Campus Mall from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. However, vaccinations will only be available at the SERF Dec. 4.
