H1N1 Flu Shot Clinic
Oberlin College is still expecting to receive the H1N1 vaccine. We do not know when we will receive the vaccine. Students will be offered the vaccines first. Once students are vaccinated, the vaccine will be offered to faculty & staff following the priority order recommended by The Center for Disease Control (CDC). Notification will be send to staff when any clinic may be held.

We will not be able to innoculate anyone younger than 18 years of age. Those with children can contact the county health department for locations where the vaccine for children is available.
