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.

********************

Following safety protocols and public health recommendations will help limit COVID-19 on our campuses, as well as in our local communities. Stay home if you are sick or experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19. Students and employees need to continue reporting to Student Health Services (561-297-3512, select option 3) if experiencing COVID-19 or flu symptoms, are exposed to COVID-19 (even if out of the area) or test positive for COVID-19.

General questions related to the COVID-19 situation should be directed to FAUCOVID19@fau.edu. All feedback is shared with applicable departments across FAU campuses to ensure adjustments as necessary. Visit the FAU coronavirus website for additional information.
