UVA Health 2021 Flu Vaccination Program

Dear Colleagues,

As we continue to respond to COVID-19, UVA Health is also preparing for the arrival of flu season. Influenza/flu vaccination is safe and effective in preventing the transmission of the virus. It also provides one of the best ways to protect our teams, families, patients, visitors, and community. By maintaining our own health, we are able to support our colleagues and ensure care delivery to the patients who depend on us during flu season, the COVID-19 pandemic and every day. During the COVID pandemic, we are encouraging team members to obtain their flu vaccination either in their home departments (through use of To-Go Kits), from their primary care provider (PCP), or at local pharmacies. Following are details about the 2021-2022 UVA Health Seasonal Flu Plan for team members.
