Annual Flu Shot Pledge

New in 2012: Have you had a flu shot within the past 12 months? If so, not only are you protected against the  influenza virus, but you can also earn 25 points for your Wellness Points Bank.

Visit StayWell Online. This is the website which hosts the results of your wellness assessment once you have completed the 20-minute online questionnaire. Confirm that you, indeed, were vaccinated again influenza (or what is commonly know as the "flu') within the past 12 months. The flu shot could have been administered at an on-campus flu vaccination clinic, a retail convenience clinic, or in your physician's office. To earn points, simply pledge online that you have received the vaccine and as a result are protecting yourself and helping stop the spread of influenza around campus.

• Go to: StayWell Online and login
• Click on the "My Points Bank" tab
• Locate the flu shot pledge among the Wellness Points Bank activities
