Good Afternoon Monarchs:

Getting a flu shot this year is more important than ever. In accordance with guidance received from the Commonwealth's Department of Human Resource Management, the Department of Human Resources will not host an on-site flu shot clinic this year. You may still receive a free flu shot at your local drugstore or doctor's office. Just show your COVA Care, COVA HealthAware or COVA HDHP plan ID card to the participating pharmacist or provider to get flu shots at no cost for you and covered family members.

If you have received a flu shot at one of the university's onsite flu shot clinics in recent years, then your information may still be on file with Harris Teeter. You may visit any Harris Teeter pharmacy to receive a flu vaccine at no cost. You will still need to show one of the above-mentioned health plan ID cards.

Additionally, on Saturday October 2nd, from 8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m., Sentara is hosting several Drive-Thru Flu Shot Clinics throughout Virginia and North Carolina. For more information and locations please visit: Sentara Drive-Thru Flu
