Foil the Flu Underway

Free Influenza Immunizations for Staff End Nov. 4

Foil the Flu, the annual seasonal influenza immunization program for NIH staff, has begun and will end on Friday, Nov. 4.

The vaccine will be given by appointment only through an online registration system. Walk-in immunization will not be available. All staff with a valid NIH identification badge are eligible to receive flu vaccine for free and are encouraged to be immunized against the flu. The best way to reduce the risk of getting the flu is to get the flu vaccine every year. All staff who have patient contact, including both employees and contractors, are required to get immunized each year. 

The on-campus location has returned to the Bldg. 10, CRC 7th fl. atrium, east side.

There will be additional Covid-19 safety measures in place. Staff providing vaccines will be carefully following infection-control procedures. Staff arriving for a flu shot must wear a face mask and follow all physical-distancing requirements. A mask will be provided if you do not have one.
