NAU Medical Services H1N1/Seasonal Influenza Vaccination Information
Medical Services no longer has seasonal flu vaccine available.
Due to the increased availability of the H1N1 vaccine, the vaccine became available to all NAU students, staff, retirees, spouses and dependants over 18 years of age on December 18, 2009.
The vaccine is available during walk-in immunization hours:
- Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday: 8 – 11:30 a.m. and 2 – 4:30 p.m.
- Wednesdays: 9 – 11:30 a.m. and 2 – 4:30 p.m.
Community clinics will be scheduled by the County and updated clinic schedules will be posted on the CCHD website at www.coconino.az.gov/health.
Additional campus clinics will be scheduled and updated clinic schedules will be posted on the NAU flu website at www.nau.edu/flu.
All clinics are based on vaccine availability and are subject to change. If you are insured by Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Aetna, or United, Medical Services will bill your carrier an administration fee, otherwise there is no charge for the vaccine.
Seasonal Flu Vaccinations
Medical Services still does not have any seasonal flu vaccine and does not anticipate having a supply any time soon. The Coconino County Health Department (CCHD) has received a limited supply of seasonal flu vaccine. Call the CCHD Flu Information Line at (928) 679-7300 or toll-free at (877) 679-7272 and ask your scheduling representative about appointment availability and eligibility.
Flu Activity Will Likely Increase Soon
Influenza activity often increases significantly during or soon after the Christmas/New Year’s holiday season. Even though flu activity has been relatively low in recent weeks, both seasonal and H1N1 (swine) flu viruses will likely increase in circulation during or after the holidays. We encourage people to receive vaccinations for H1N1 (swine) flu and seasonal flu, as soon as possible, especially those who are at high risk of influenza complications.
