Free Meningitis B vaccine clinic for UPEI students

The UPEI Health and Wellness Centre is holding a free meningococcal B (Men-B) pop-up vaccination clinic for undergraduate students from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm during the Welcome Week Panther Prowl Bingo event.

Students must provide their PEI health card or proof of international insurance, and their student ID when they get their vaccine. There is no cost to them for the vaccine. For full protection, students must receive two doses administered at a minimum of 28 days apart. Future clinics will be held, and information about dates and times will be shared with the campus community.

We'll also discuss where you can access supports as a UPEI student and leave time at the end for questions.
