Bivalent COVID-19 boosters are available for individuals 17 years and older (unless moderately or severely immunocompromised). The bivalent versions of the COVID-19 vaccine will offer protection against both the original strain of SARS-CoV-2 as well as the Omicron BA.4/BA.5 strain, which is now the predominant variant.

The bivalent booster must be administered at least two months after any other COVID-19 vaccine (primary series or other booster).

Student Health teams up with Appalachian Food Resource Hub

Student Health will be teaming up with the Appalachian Food Resource Hub. What is the Food Resource Hub you may ask? The Resource Food Hub is a place where students can go if they are in need of food, warm clothing, toiletry items, and even school supplies. They are located in East Hall and students would need to make an appointment before going. But EVEN better yet, we will be keeping a few food bags here at Student Health for the immediate student need. The food bags will be kept in Radiology when you need them.
