University of California will require flu shots this fall

UCs are requiring all students, faculty, and staff to get flu vaccinations before Nov. 1st. They already required that all students have the measles, mumps, rubella, chicken pox, meningococcus, tetanus, and whooping cough vaccinations prior to this pandemic. Really worried about colleges that are opening up this fall when the seasonal flu and the coronavirus are expected to create havoc on our already stressed bodies and medical communities.

Purdue Univ, Univ of Miami, and Univ of Tennessee Knoxville have also added the flu vaccine to their entrance requirements. Glad to see that some of the universities are taking proactive steps in protecting their students, professors, and staff.
