UAB H1N1 Flu Vaccination Clinic Nov. 19-20
Posted Tuesday, November 17, 2009

UAB will conduct an H1N1 (swine) flu vaccination clinic for students, faculty and staff, only, Thursday and Friday Nov. 19-20 in the Blazer Hall Residence Life Center. The clinic will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. both days while supplies last.

In line with the Center for Disease Control (CDC) immunization guidelines, at this clinic we will administer vaccines to pregnant women, young adults up to 24 years of age, people caring for infants under 6 months of age, people aged 25 to 64 years with underlying medical conditions (e.g. asthma, diabetes), and health care workers and emergency medical responders who are direct care providers. Please be reminded that UAB Medicine employees have access to the H1N1 flu vaccine through UAB Hospital Employee Health.

In order to receive the vaccine at the clinic this week you must be a UAB student or faculty or staff member, and you will need to provide UAB identification and your BlazerID. We suggest you wear a short sleeve shirt that allows easy access to your upper arm.
