Wake Forest University is offering free flu shots to all faculty, staff and retirees Sept. 21 through Oct. 19. This year the University has implemented a new Mandatory Influenza Vaccine Policy. Universal immunization against influenza during the COVID-19 era will help reduce the burden on resources of the healthcare systems on and off campus while promoting campus community health and wellbeing. This policy requires all faculty, staff and students to receive a flu shot and submit documentation by Dec. 15, 2020. Faculty and staff may request a medical, religious or off-site exemption from the policy by completing the Influenza Vaccine Exemption Request Form.
