CWU Student Health Services is delivering booster shots from 11-3 Friday in SURC room 137.
CWU Student Health Services has scheduled a free COVID-19 booster shot clinic for both students and employees Friday, January 21, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in SURC room 137.

The university and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) strongly encourage booster shots for anyone who received the two-shot regimen of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines at least five months ago. A booster is recommended after two months for those who received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

Find a location near you by using the Washington Department of Health’s vaccine locator. COVID-19 booster shots also will be available to students at SHS on Wednesdays and Thursdays, by appointment, throughout winter quarter.
