We encourage members of the university community to be vaccinated if and when they are able to do so. We also acknowledge that some individuals have health conditions or other reasons why they cannot be vaccinated. See here for more guidance about vaccination status.

CUPHD is advising that all individuals who are eligible and able take the first opportunity to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. If possible, you are encouraged to return to the same location for your second dose. But if that is not possible, the health department in your home county should be able to schedule and administer your second dose if you contact them and explain your situation. Be sure to have your vaccine record card when you contact them.

We will send another message when CUPHD has more vaccine appointments available. As a reminder, the Champaign-Urbana Public Health District is leading vaccination distribution for our county. The university shares information from CUPHD when it is relevant to faculty, staff or students. The university does not control the vaccine appointments, timelines or community clinic locations.

The distribution of a vaccine is welcome news, but we must continue to be as diligent as ever in safety precautions, including regular COVID-19 testing, wearing face coverings, social distancing, hand washing and avoiding large gatherings. Mandatory testing requirements are still in place for individuals who are fully vaccinated.

Thank you in advance for your understanding as we work through this next phase of the COVID-19 pandemic and rely on the guidance of our public health leaders to make the best decisions for our community.

Sincerely,

Robert J. Jones
Chancellor
