Getting
vaccinated is the most effective way to help stop the COVID-19 pandemic.
The university strongly encourages the entire OU community to get vaccinated.
OU Health Services at Goddard Health Center is hosting a free walk-in COVID-19 vaccine clinic

About the Vaccine Clinics:
Who is eligible?
-
All OU students faculty, staff, and their dependents
-
International and non-resident students, faculty, and staff who have permanent out-of-state or international addresses
-
All vaccine recipients must be age 12 or older (Pfizer). The Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines will be available for individuals age 18 and older.
Is there a cost?
No. There is no cost to receive a vaccine and no co-payment is required.
Are appointments necessary?
No, these are walk-in clinics.
If I’ve received my first dose of a two-dose vaccine outside of OU, can I receive my second dose at the OU clinics?
Yes, as long as it has been the appropriate interval for each vaccine (21 days for Pfizer, 28 days for Moderna), you may receive your second dose of that vaccine at the OU clinics. Be sure to bring your COVID-19 vaccination record card with you.
If I get my first dose of Pfizer or Moderna at the OU clinics, will I need to get dose 2 through OU, or can I get it elsewhere?
While we encourage you to get your second dose through OU Health Services, you can make an appointment elsewhere, as long as it is for the same kind of vaccine. Getting your second dose is very important because it gives you the most protection from the virus,
including variants.

Booster Doses:
The FDA has approved a third dose of Pfizer and Moderna vaccines for
moderately to severely immunocompromised individuals. At this time, there is no recommendation for an additional Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) dose.
OU Health Services at Goddard Health Center is now taking walk-ins and/or
appointments for individuals who meet the guidelines to receive a third dose. Booster doses will also
be available for eligible individuals at the Mobile RV Vaccine Clinic. The third dose is to be given at least 28 days after the second dose, and it should be the same brand previously received. Information on booster doses for future eligible populations is
forthcoming.

Getting Ready for Your Vaccine:
-
Bring a photo ID.
Your photo ID, such as your driver’s license or university ID, is used to ensure the dose is being administered to the same person who is in the registration system.
Photo IDs from another state or country will be accepted.
-
Bring your health insurance card, if you have one. Please note there is no
cost to receive the vaccine, and insurance is not required.
-
If you are receiving your second dose of a two-dose vaccine, or if you are receiving a booster dose, bring your COVID-19 vaccination record card.
-
Wear a face mask. Because the clinics are considered a patient setting, masking
is required in the OU vaccine clinics. Masks will be provided, or you may bring your own.
