According to reports from the CDC, numbers of people with the flu usually peak from December-March. The normal time for immunity from the flu vaccine to be completed is four weeks, according to a Health Services press release, so students are encouraged to receive their vaccines sometime in mid-November. There will be a flu vaccine clinic for students, faculty and staff Friday after Chapel until 1 p.m. in the Hilton Room in the Campus Center. There will be another clinic at the same place, Nov. 3 from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Students are encouraged to make an appointment with Health Services to get a flu shot if they cannot attend the clinics.
Cost is the same.
