Student flu vaccine clinics begin Sept. 27

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Fall means flu season is right around the corner. Each season, multiple flu strains circulate around University Park. Without the flu vaccine, it’s possible for students to be infected with every strain. 

Students can protect themselves by getting vaccinated during one of the many flu shot clinics held by University Health Services, a unit of Student Affairs.

Flu shot clinics will run Sept. 27 through Nov. 7.

The clinics will be located in Alumni Hall in the HUB-Robeson Center. A full list of the clinics dates and hours can be found on the UHS website. Students can drop-in to the clinic or make an appointment online.

The cost of the vaccine is $25. Students are asked to bring their Penn State ID and their insurance card.

Students can also schedule an office visit at the Student Health Center for their vaccine, however an additional administration fee will be charged.
