Flu News: Wash your hands, cover your cough, get enough sleep & get vaccinated!
H1N1 Flu shots: Supplies of H1N1 flu vaccine are beginning to arrive. Our first priority is to offer H1N1 flu vaccine to students.  If adequate supplies remain, we will provide vaccination for faculty and staff.  Please watch for announcements. 
Clinics to provide vaccine for students are being planned.  Watch your Eastern e-mail and the portal banner for announcements when vaccine will be avaliable.  Vaccination will be FREE.
 

Other priority groups for vaccination include:

  • Pregnant women (please see your obstetrician for H1N1 vaccine)
  • Household contacts and caregivers of infants less than 6 months of age
  • Persons aged 25-64 years who have medical conditions associated with a higher risk of influenza complications

Seasonal flu vaccine is still available in the community:
