Free flu shots now available for all students

UW–Madison students can get free flu shots, while supplies last, without an appointment at University Health Services, 1552 University Ave., from 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday.

Earlier this fall, there had been restrictions on who was eligible to get a flu shot. These restrictions have been lifted, allowing any student who wants one to get vaccinated.

There is a limited supply of the nasal spray vaccine, FluMist, available for students who don’t want a shot. There is a $5 charge for FluMist.

It’s not too late to get a flu shot, as influenza cases typically peak in late January and early February. For more information, contact Craig Roberts at (608) 262-6720 or cmrober1@wisc.edu.
