Seasonal Flu Clinics Open
Universities and Local Health Departments Launch Seasonal Flu Vaccine Clinics Across Regions
Anonymous
Universities and local health officials are offering seasonal flu vaccination options, including campus clinics and community events. Purdue has two remaining drive-through clinics on Sept. 30 and Oct. 1, alongside vaccination options at its health centers, pharmacy and community providers. The University of Toledo will begin offering free shots Oct. 1 at campus locations and pop-up clinics; people subject to its vaccine requirement must submit proof by Dec. 1. UNMC is arranging advance-registration clinics for Omaha faculty and staff, while employees elsewhere are encouraged to use local pharmacies or healthcare providers. Ashtabula County will hold a walk-in, flu-only clinic in Jefferson on Oct. 1, with some no-cost vaccines available to eligible people.
Key Points
1
Purdue employees attending a flu-shot event should bring their Purdue ID; covered dependents use the employee’s ID. Employees can also earn incentives through the 2026 Your Path Wellness Program by recording their vaccination in the Your Path Portal.
2
At UToledo, no appointment is needed at campus vaccination sites, but people must complete a consent form before getting vaccinated. Vaccinations received on campus are recorded automatically; people vaccinated elsewhere must upload proof themselves.
3
UNMC’s Omaha clinics will offer standard-dose and high-dose flu vaccines, but not COVID-19 vaccines. Employees are asked to record their vaccination status in the university’s Health Tracking System, wherever they received their shot.

Ashtabula County’s Oct. 1 clinic will run from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Jefferson Emergency Rescue District and is walk-in, not drive-through. Attendees should bring insurance cards and shot records if possible; minors must be accompanied by a parent.
