A Message from Student Health & Wellness

8 OCT 2009

Dear UMKC Students, Faculty and Staff,

Student Health has used up all of the season flu vaccine supply. All future clinics have been cancelled.

Currently there is no vaccine available for provider purchase, although the vaccine is still available in some community settings (see below for locations).

Student Health does not know if seasonl flu vaccine will be available again. If season flu vaccine becomes available, a notice will be sent out.

As a note, this is the first year Student Health has ever used up all its vaccine and vaccine is ordered in February and March.
