Mary S. Shook Student Health Service
FLU VACCINE: The Health Service currently has a limited supply of H1N1 Flumist (live attenuated virus) vaccine and the H1N1 regular injection (killed virus) available on a "first come/first serve" basis. There is no charge for these vaccines. Please note: Flumist is not recommended for high-risk patients (high-risk being defined as students with asthma, diabetes, HIV, or chronic heart, lung, or kidney disease). Since they cannot take the live vaccine, these high-risk students will be given first access to the injection form of the H1N1 vaccine.
The Health Service no longer has any "Seasonal" flu vaccine.
To receive an H1N1 vaccine, students should come to the Health Service Monday-Friday between 8-11:30 AM (Wednesdays: 9-11:30 AM) and 12:30-3:30 PM. There is a 20-minute wait after administration of the vaccine.
For immediate emergency, always call 911.
During regular hours listed below, call (828) 262-3100.
An after-hours nurse is available by calling (828) 262-3100 and following the prompts.
REMINDER: A VALID ASU STUDENT ID IS REQUIRED IN ORDER TO USE THE STUDENT HEALTH SERVICE.
