This year, more than ever, it is important to protect yourself and your family members from the seasonal flu. Thankfully, there are many ways to obtain a flu shot this year, including at the upcoming University of Utah Employee Appreciation Day (EAD), taking place on Thursday, October 14 from 10 am – 2 pm at Rice-Eccles Stadium.

This year’s EAD flu shot clinic will be located on north side of the West Concourse within Rice-Eccles Stadium. Volunteers from the Colleges of Nursing will be on site to deliver flu shots to any interested employee.

If you are interested in getting a flu shot at EAD, consider filling out your paperwork ahead of time to skip the line! Click here to access this paperwork. Be sure to bring this paperwork with you in addition to your employee Ucard (required for entry) and your EventBrite registration.

All EAD attendees, including those just interested in participating in the flu shot clinic, should be sure to register via EventBrite to help the event organizer better plan for the day. Plus, it’s the only way to claim your free pizza this year!

If you can’t make this year’s EAD flu shot clinic, there are several other ways to get your flu shot this year. Vaccines will be available at your local pharmacy or through your health provider’s office. RedMed flu shot clinics will also take place this year – more information to be announced! Departments may also coordinate their own flu shot clinic by contacting Wendy Poppleton at wendy.poppleton@utah.edu.
