Health Spotlight
Stay Proactive, Be Well
The SHC continues to monitor Respiratory Virus Activity levels in Washington, D.C. and nationally. We recommend that you take protective measures like getting vaccinated for COVID and influenza to protect yourself from severe disease and wearing a mask to reduce the spread of infection.
Seasonal Vaccines
Each fall, students should make a plan to schedule their seasonal respiratory virus vaccines. This fall, the CDC is not only recommending an updated seasonal flu vaccination, but they are also recommending an updated seasonal COVID vaccination. CDC Recommends Updated 2024-2025 COVID-19 and Flu Vaccines for Fall/Winter Virus Season
Note: Newly updated seasonal Flu and COVID vaccines will not be available until after late August.
