UM Health Clinic Helps Students Stay Healthy

The demand for flu shots have gone up on campus since last year. Out of the thousand that the curry health center pre-ordered, 800 have already been used in two months. The curry health center provides flu shots for students, as well as people in the community. Flu shots typically provide patients with immunity for eight or nine months. Pharmacy manager Ken Chatriand says two cases of the flu came in just yesterday and encourages people to get their flu shot as soon as possible. The pharmacy students go through extensive training to be able to administrator flu shots in the curry health center as well as different locations on campus.
