Bivalent COVID-19 booster clinic coming to Bloomington campus – IU Newsroom
Both Pfizer and Moderna vaccines and boosters, as well as the flu vaccine, will be available at the clinic. COVID-19 testing will not be available.
During this clinic, the bivalent booster will be available only for those 12 and older. The bivalent booster is authorized for anyone 5 and older, however. To find a bivalent booster vaccine site for kids 5 through 11, call 211. In general, health officials recommend getting this new booster if it’s been five or six months or more since your last booster or a COVID-19 infection.
You should plan to bring your CDC COVID-19 vaccination card and a photo ID, and wear a short-sleeved shirt for easy access to your upper arm.
If you are having any COVID-19 or flu-like symptoms on the day of your appointment, please do not attend.
