Yes, they mandate the flu shot as well.
More colleges are mandating an assortment of vaccines, most have already mandated vaccines against things like Pertussis in order to reduce the amount of harm it can cause on campus.
- FollowingTheDao 4y agoNo Harvard does NOT mandate the flu shot: "Noncompliance with the flu requirement will not impact your ability to register for classes for the summer or fall semester. "

- fzeroracer 4y agoYes, they do. On the same page you're quoting they mention that they mandate it for spring quarter registration. They mandate it that way because the flu is seasonal. By the time you need to register it will be shortly before flu season kicks in.
- lupire 4y agoNote that the flu mandate is a very new policy. I'm not sure when Harvard started, but Massachusetts only started in 2020 after Covid started.
