FLU CLINIC

The best way to reduce your risk of contracting seasonal influenza is to be vaccinated.  Villanova University will host a four-day walk-in seasonal flu clinic in partnership with Rite Aid pharmacy for all students and employees wishing to receive the vaccine.  Rite Aid pharmacy staff will administer the seasonal flu vaccines. This is not a COVID vaccine clinic.  

This is a walk-in clinic. No appointment necessary.

The seasonal flu clinic will take place on campus on:

  2. COMPLETE the Screening Questionnaire form and bring it with you to the clinic
  3. BRING your VU Wildcard to the clinic site
  4. BRING a PHOTOCOPY of your insurance card to the clinic site

 

Rite Aid pharmacy accepts many health insurances. For students whose health insurance plans may not be accepted, payment for the vaccine may be made via check or Wildcard. The cost of the vaccine is $32.  For employees, as in in previous years, the annual seasonal influenza clinic is sponsored by the Office of Human Resources at no cost to the employee.

The seasonal flu vaccine to be administered contains killed influenza virus of the types selected by the U.S. Public Health Services and the Center for Biologics Evaluations and Research of U.S. Food and Drug Administration.  The vaccine will not give you flu, because it is a killed virus vaccine.

 If you have questions, please contact the Student Health Center at 610-519-4070.
