Baptist Health Community Vaccination Site at FAU Boca Raton Campus

To the FAU community,

Baptist Health will host a community vaccination site in the Live Oak Pavilion of the Student Union on FAU’s Boca Raton campus on Thursday, May 13, and Thursday, May 20, from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. Vaccinations will be available only for those 16 years of age or older.

Appointments are not required. The first vaccine dose will be administered and recipients will be advised of return dates for the second dose.

All members of the university community are strongly encouraged to Protect Your Owl Family and get vaccinated. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently amended COVID-19 guidance for the general population. The new guidance both encourages vaccination and offers new parameters for those who have already been vaccinated.
