COVID-19 Updates

The CDC recommends an updated COVID-19 vaccine for everyone aged 6 months and older.

The main reason to get vaccinated against COVID-19 is to protect yourself against severe illness, hospitalization, and even death. COVID-19 vaccines also reduce the chance of having Long COVID. This updated vaccine is expected to provide better protection against variants that are currently making people sick. 

Looking for a COVID vaccine? Visit Vaccines.gov or Multco.gov (for Multnomah County) to find an off-campus vaccination site.

The Student Health Center offers COVID-19 testing for individuals with symptoms. Please call to learn more.
