Posted on

Due to the generosity of the Cal State LA Health Center, Student Health Services recently received 100 doses of flu vaccine to administer to high-risk members of the campus community. These doses will be reserved solely for students, faculty and staff who meet one or more of the following high risk categories as mandated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and ordered by the State of California Department of Health Services:

  • Persons aged 2-64 years with underlying chronic medical conditions (such as asthma, lung or heart disease, including diabetes, kidney disease, blood disorders [such as sickle cell anemia], or weakened immune systems, including persons with HIV/AIDS);    
  • Adults aged 65 years and older;    
  • All women who will be pregnant during the influenza season;  
  • Health-care workers involved in direct patient care; and Out-of-home caregivers and household contacts of children aged <6 months.   

Please call (909) 869-4000 to schedule an appointment during clinic hours. The cost for faculty and staff is $10. There is no charge for students considered at high risk. Please bring your Bronco Access Card or Faculty/Staff ID, and come prepared to show proof of age and eligibility.
