COVID-19 Vaccine & Booster Information

Harvard requires FDA- or WHO-authorized COVID-19 vaccinations, which include all outlined dose(s) in a primary series and one COVID-19 booster for all eligible community members, including students, faculty, staff, and researchers.

Vaccines and boosters are the best defense against severe illness from COVID-19, and are critical components of the University’s multi-layered health and safety measures. Staying up-to-date with current COVID-19 vaccinations help protect our community from severe illness, hospitalizations, and enable in-person learning, research, and other activities that are critical to the University’s teaching and learning mission.

Below is information about how to schedule a COVID vaccine. Individuals should also visit HUHS for guidance on how to verify their vaccine and booster.

For additional details on the vaccination policy, visit HUHS’ vaccine requirement FAQs page.

“Getting vaccinated is the best way to protect yourself, your friends and family, and your colleagues.”

Dr. Giang Nguyen, Executive Director of Harvard University Health Services
