Faculty and Staff: Flu Alert - Campus Outbreaks and Prevention

 
Monday, November 22, 2021 :: UTRGV Announcements

Dear Faculty and Staff,

Warnings from health and medical experts are taking form as colleges and universities around the country battle influenza (flu) outbreaks within their campus communities. With the holiday season upon us, the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones from infection is to get vaccinated as soon as possible.

As a reminder, all UTRGV benefits eligible employees can get a flu shot for FREE by calling and scheduling an appointment at the following locations:

UT Health RGV Employee Health (Edinburg)
Research Education Building (EREBL) 1st floor
1214 W. Schunior St.
Edinburg, TX 78539
(956) 296-1731

UT Health RGV Multispecialty (Harlingen)
2106 Treasure Hills Blvd. #1.326
Harlingen, TX 78550
(956) 296-1519

UT Health RGV Student Health (Brownsville)*

Brownsville, TX 78520
(956) 882-3896

*In Brownsville, flu shots are available to all UTRGV employees, active students, and their enrolled dependents.

Please have your insurance card available at check-in.


Two Vaccines. One UTRGV.

While vaccines and boosters are slowing the spread of COVID-19, please remember: We are still in a pandemic. Now that the flu is widely circulating, it’s never been more important for each of us to get vaccinated against these two viruses.

TIP: You can even save time by getting your flu shot and COVID-19 vaccine (or booster) during the same visit, as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and its Advisory Committee on Immunizations Practices (ACIP).

For more on influenza and vaccines, visit the CDC’s FAQs about the 2021-2022 flu season.

Thank you for doing your part to protect yourself and prevent an outbreak.
