Any full-time university faculty or staff member and any part-time university employee for whom Johns Hopkins is the primary employer is now eligible to be vaccinated against H1N1 flu, regardless of age or chronic medical conditions. The vaccine is free to all those showing an employee ID.

The vaccine is also available on the East Baltimore campus in the Broadway Corridor of The Johns Hopkins Hospital, from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at least through Friday, Dec. 18.
