To support the health and well-being of our campus and the community, an updated revision of the University of California Vaccine Program Policy was issued on June 26, 2024, strongly recommending that all members of the University community follow vaccine recommendations adopted by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) applicable to their age, medical condition, and other relevant indications. The policy also allows for submitting an opt-out/declination of getting the Flu vaccines.
