It is important to be up-to-date with this vaccine especially due to the fact that there is an outbreak of mumps in Anchorage currently. Everyone who is deficient in the vaccine series should obtain the vaccine series ASAP.  For individuals who are up-to-date and it has been at least five years since your last vaccine, we are offering a booster vaccine for free for a limited time. We recommend everyone who lives in campus housing to have this booster shot.
