U of L Health staff finished a two week run of flu shots last Friday.
Across the street from the Reynolds Lofts, university staff and students could get free flu shots every day from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. On average, over the 2 week period, over 20 daily vaccinations were carried out on participating students and staff. From the university’s press release: “All university members coming to campus are required to get a flu shot as part of the university’s response to the pandemic.”
According to staff, having a drive thru option was necessary to ensure the health and safety of staff and students and to reduce the risk of potential COVID-19 transmission.
