University Health Services plans to hold several large-scale student vaccination clinics on campus as early as Tuesday, Nov. 3.
According to a release, UHS received the H1N1 vaccine last Wednesday and has started vaccinating UHS health-care providers who are regularly in direct contact with people with the virus.
The release also said UHS evaluated 49 students with flu-like symptoms last week, comprising 4.2 percent of the total primary care visits to the clinic. Those numbers are similar to those of the previous week, when 43 students contacted UHS with flu-like symptoms.
Depending on the number of vaccines received, UHS plans to hold as many as six large student vaccination clinics at various locations on campus, including Memorial Union, the SERF and the Nat.
