The 91¿´Æ¬ and National Jewish Health have vaccinated approximatelyÌý11,800 people on the 91¿´Æ¬ campus. Vaccination efforts on campus began in February during a Valentine’s Day event that resulted in more than 3,000 individuals receiving their first vaccine. Over the last month, 91¿´Æ¬ and National Jewish Health have hosted first- and second-dose vaccination events roughly twice a week thanks to the help of student and 91¿´Æ¬ community volunteers.

The 91¿´Æ¬ and National Jewish Health created a new partnership in the summer of 2020 to help with the safe return to campus for 91¿´Æ¬ students, faculty and staff. The two organizations worked together to develop and refine monitoring, testing, isolation and contact-tracing protocols. Using the 91¿´Æ¬ campus as a vaccination location has been the next phase in a growing partnership.

Individuals interested in receiving the vaccine from National Jewish Health can to be added to their waitlist.
