The University Health Center at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln has received a small allocation of H1N1 vaccine for UNL students.

The UHC will have a walk-in H1N1 vaccination clinic for UNL students under the age of 25 from 9 a.m. to noon Nov. 24 as supply lasts at the health center, 1500 U St.

There is no charge for this immunization for students who have paid the facility fee (those taking 7 or more credits); those taking 6 or fewer credits will be charged the $6 administration fee payable by cash or check only at the time of service. Students will need their NCard for check-in.

Vaccines for high-risk UNL students between the ages of 25-64 will be by appointment only; call (402) 472-5000 to schedule an H1N1 vaccination. High-risk categories include:

* Pregnant women
* Household contact and/or caregivers for children younger than 6 months
* Chronic health conditions including heart disease, lung disease, asthma, and/or diabetes
* Weakened immune system
* Healthcare and emergency services personnel

As additional vaccine becomes available, individuals outside the priority groups will be able to receive a vaccine. University Health Center officials recommend that all people stay informed this flu season.
