According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, influenza vaccination is the best way to prevent the flu. U-M faculty and staff have several options for receiving their flu vaccination on campus this fall. 

U-M Health System faculty, staff, medical or nursing students and volunteers can receive free flu vaccinations at Health System fairs, through U-M Occupational Health Services in the Med Inn Building or from clinical unit flu liaisons.

More information and a list of options are available at med.umich.edu/u/flu. (Note: This website must be accessed from a university computer or virtual network.)

Those not covered under the insurance plans accepted at the flu shot clinic can still receive a flu shot at a rate of $25 per person. Pay by cash, check, or credit card.

In addition to the MHealthy/MVN clinics, non-UMHS employees can also get a flu shot by appointment at the University Health Service or at the office of their primary care provider.
