Counseling and Health expands H1N1 shot criteria

The Counseling and Health Center informed students late Monday afternoon that anyone between the ages of six months and 24 years of ages could receive a free immunization with the H1N1 vaccine, while the current supply lasts. The center had 90 doses of its latest allotment remaining. Hours are 9 to 11 a.m. Tuesday (Nov. 24) and 10 a.m. to noon Wednesday (Nov. 25) in Student Services 1400, on a first-come, first-served basis. Previously, the center had been adhering to stricter priority guidelines that recommended shots only for health care and children’s care providers, or people with underlying conditions.
