As flu season approaches, it's important to consider the health and well-being of our campus community. We invite all eligible faculty and staff to consider getting their annual flu shot. This small step can make a big difference in helping to keep yourself, your family, and your colleagues safe. Getting vaccinated is an easy and effective way to support a healthier environment at Iowa. Best of all, there are free and convenient flu vaccination clinics across campus—making it simple to take care of your health this season.

Flu vaccinations start Monday, Sept. 16, and run through Friday, Dec. 6. to learn more about dates and locations for on-campus flu-vaccine events please visit this site.

Alternative options for getting your flu vaccine
If you can't get the vaccine at the Employee Health Clinic or one of the sites listed above, you have other options. Schedule your vaccine at UI QuickCare, UI Urgent Care, Iowa River Landing, UI Health Care Medical Center Downtown, a local pharmacy, or from your primary care provider. If you don't have a primary care provider, request one by calling 800-777-8442 or use the online appointment form.

The flu vaccine is covered under University of Iowa health plans and many other insurance plans.
