Flu Clinics Cancelled

    Due to a national seasonal flu vaccine shortage, we had to cancel our on-campus flu vaccine clinic scheduled for Wednesday, October 28 and Friday, October 30.

    We hope to reschedule the clinic for later in the year (depending on the availability of the vaccine).

    Our H1N1 vaccination clinic scheduled for October 29 and 30 has also been cancelled. We will continue to work with the Madison Public Health Department and Dane County health officials on having a future vaccination clinic (again depending on availability of the vaccine).

    In the meantime, it's very important you follow these guidelines:
    Wash Hands• Wash your hands frequently with soap and warm water.
    • Use alcohol-based hand sanitizers between hand washings, or when soap and water isn’t available.
    • Avoiding rubbing your eyes, nose, or mouth.
    • Avoid close contact with sick people, preferably 6 feet or more.
    • Stay home if you're sick. If you have flu-like symptoms stay home for at least 24 hours after your fever is gone (your fever should be gone without the use of a fever-reducing medicine).
