OPEN TO TCNJ STUDENTS, STAFF AND FACULTY!
TCNJ students are strongly encouraged to get vaccinated against seasonal flu every year. College campuses are high risk areas for transmission of infectious diseases such as the flu because of close living, learning environments. Don’t wait for a large flu outbreak to think about ways to protect yourself. Do it now. Flu vaccine has a long proven safety record and is very effective in providing protection against seasonal flu. This year’s vaccine also provides protection from H1N1 flu. For information about the 2011 Flu Vaccine, click here.

You should NOT get a flu shot if:
- You have had a severe allergic reaction to eggs or to a previous flu shot
- You have a history of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS)
If you are sick with a fever when you go to get your flu shot, you should talk to your doctor or nurse about getting your shot at a later date. However, you can get a flu shot at the same time you have a respiratory illness without fever or if you have another mild illness.
