Flu Shots on Campus

Flu is Infecting Significantly More UT Students than Last Year

Austin/Travis County is experiencing an increase in flu cases and significantly more cases than last year. So is University Health Services.

If you got a flu shot last fall (2012), you DO NOT need to get another one!

The flu vaccine is recommended for all adults except those who:

  • Have a severe allergy to eggs.
  • Have a severe allergy to any component of the flu vaccine.
  • Have had a severe reaction to a prior flu shot.
