COVID-19 Updates

On 9/1/2022, the FDA authorized updated Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 bivalent boosters. Bivalent boosters provide better protection against the Omicron BA.4 and BA.5 variants.

People 6 months of age and older are currently eligible for the Pfizer and Moderna bivalent boosters. You can get the single booster dose at least two months after your primary series or most recent booster. Click here for an updated COVID-19 vaccination schedule, broken down by age, vaccine type, and medical condition.

UP has updated its COVID-19 Vaccination Policy for the 2022-2023 academic year. The deadline to upload your COVID-19 vaccination record (including booster dose), or exemption form was August 15, 2022. Visit our Vaccine Compliance page for more information.
