This year UC has partnered with Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora to provide FREE Meningococcal vaccinations for students intending or already in halls accommodation.
UC strongly recommends the vaccination of all students.
Young people are particularly vulnerable to Meningococcal Disease and its potentially devastating effects, including Meningitis and Septicaemia, which strike fast and can be deadly. Long-term effects can include limb amputation, hearing loss, brain injury and permanent skin scarring if not diagnosed and treated in time. Diagnosis can be difficult as symptoms can often mimic those of the common cold.
Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora vaccination drop-in clinic will be located in Bentleys (located in Haere-roa, above the Foundry) between 10am – 2pm on Thursday 1 August.
The clinic will also offer free HPV (for anyone aged 26 and under) and MMR immunisations. These vaccinations are now in the childhood immunisation schedule, but you may have missed out on them. Check your online health portal or ask your GP if you’re not sure.
If you have any questions you can chat to the Health New Zealand team on the day.
Wishing you all the best,
UC Wellbeing
