December 7: Booster Shots and Incentive Program
Dear CSB/SJU Students, Faculty and Staff:
We are writing to strongly encourage eligible members of our community to seek out booster shots. Those ages 18 and older qualify for a booster shot if you are six months past your second Pfizer or Moderna vaccine, or two months past your one dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
The Minnesota Department of Health has noted that waning immunity from earlier vaccines (specifically six or more months after the two-shot vaccines) is a driver of breakthrough COVID-19 cases. We realize this week’s booster shot clinic on campus filled up quickly, so please don’t wait. Sign up for a booster shot at a pharmacy or clinic with shots available. You can locate booster shot availability at https://www.vaccines.gov.
We are excited to announce that CSB/SJU is introducing an incentive program for undergraduate students. If you obtain a COVID-19 booster shot – on or off campus – and upload your booster information, you will be entered into a drawing for the following prizes:
- $100 bookstore gift card (five for CSB and five for SJU) – drawing Dec. 13
- $200 bookstore gift card (five for CSB and five for SJU) – drawing Dec. 20
- $1,000 applied to your spring semester student account (one CSB and one SJU) – drawing Jan. 3
- $1,000 applied to your spring semester student account (one CSB and one SJU) – drawing Jan. 10
- $1,000 applied to your spring semester student account (one CSB and one SJU) – drawing Jan. 17
Eligibility: CSB/SJU undergraduate students enrolled in spring semester 2022
Date of first drawing: Monday, Dec. 13
How to enter: Submit your booster information to the Vaccination Submission Form
Winners will be randomly selected. You must submit your vaccine record to have your name in the drawing.
