Flu shot clinic returns to campus after two years

By Prakriti Panwar, News Editor October 14, 2024
The flu Point of Dispensing is returning to Ithaca College after two years and will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Oct. 15 in Emerson Suites. This year, individuals who wish to be inoculated will have to present their insurance cards, a requirement that did not exist when the flu POD was last organized in Fall 2022.
Faculty in the Department of Health Promotion and Physical Education address the President's Cabinet and the Ithaca College community regarding the lack of an on-campus flu vaccine clinic.

Open Letter: Flu POD is an effective way to vaccinate community

In a typical year, we have been able to immunize 1,000-plus faculty, staff and students in a 4 to 5-hour period with an average waiting time of approximately five minutes.
The college informed students this clinic will not be available for Fall 2022 because of the many locations in the community offering flu vaccines.
