Freshmen to Receive Inoculation Priority In Flu Shot Program

Members of the Class of 1961 will receive Asian Flu inoculations on Thursday, according to Dr. Dana L. Farnsworth, Director of University Health Services. The freshmen will learn the time for shots from their proctors, and through notices in the dormitory entries.

Farnsworth said he expects vaccine to be available for upperclassmen some time next week. He indicated that they would be inoculated according to some alphabetical arrangement on a House basis.

The Health Services yesterday began the first series of vaccination shots for married graduate students, and planned to complete the round of second shots for faculty members and other University personnel.

Dr. Sholem Postel, Director of the Radcliffe Health Center, said that sufficient vaccine is available for the second round of shots for Radcliffe officers and employees.

Although student vaccinations have not begun, Dr. Postel believes that the same proportion of Radcliffe as of Harvard students will receive the vaccine. Shots will be doled out to Radcliffe undergraduates as soon as the serum comes from Harvard, he said.
