The Student Health Clinic will be offering covid-19 vaccines throughout the fall 2021 semester on Thursday afternoons from 1 – 3 p.m. and Friday mornings from 9 – 11 a.m. Please call the Covid-19 phone line at (319) 273-2100 to set up an appointment. Students must remain at the clinic for 15-30 minutes after receiving the vaccine to monitor for any unexpected changes in their health or allergic reactions.
There is no requirement that students, faculty, staff or visitors receive or provide evidence of having received a vaccination for COVID-19.
