The Barnes Center at The Arch and the Office of Human Resources, in collaboration with the Onondaga County Health Department, will continue their partnership to offer free flu vaccines to the Syracuse University community. This year, health care providers from the Barnes Center will be immunizing with the quadrivalent flu vaccine to protect against four strains of influenza viruses.
There are several upcoming opportunities for students, faculty, staff and retirees to get the flu vaccine on campus; mark your calendars for this important step in preventing the flu this season. In addition to on-campus flu clinics, Syracuse University medical plan participants have alternative options [PDF] for receiving the flu vaccine, as well as other vaccines.
