Dr. Aaron Carroll, one of the leaders of IU’s COVID-19 Medical Response Team, will hold three additional “Ask Aaron” webinars through the remainder of the academic year on Dec. 2, Dec. 9 and Dec. 16. They provide an opportunity for students, staff and faculty to pose their questions about the pandemic to Carroll.

The live Q&A sessions will include topics such as:

  • Testing updates and understanding the dashboard.
  • Keeping healthy during this flu season.
  • Ending in-person classes and heading home safely.

Visit covid.iu.edu for the latest updates. Recordings are posted on broadcast.iu.edu.

Get your flu vaccination by Dec. 1

The deadline to get a flu shot is Dec. 1 for all IU employees, as well as students who are studying or working on campus after Nov. 20.

To receive a vaccine at a campus clinic at no cost, make an appointment through the Student Health Center’s online scheduler.

If you choose to get your flu vaccine somewhere other than an IU flu clinic or a campus health center, you will need to fill out the Flu Vaccine Reporting Form to let IU know you have received a vaccination. If you’re requesting an exemption, use the exemption request form.
