Students with registration Nos. 1 to 5,000 can receive the injectable form of the vaccine in the Petersen Events Center from noon to 5 p.m. Thursday, according to Pitt’s website.

This will be the second time the University has offered the injectable form of the vaccine, as opposed to the nasal spray. The University suggests on its website that people who are pregnant, have a chronic medical condition, such as asthma or heart disease, or are immunocompromised take the injectable form of the vaccine.

Students can register for the vaccine by visiting my.pitt.edu or www.pitt.edu/swine-flu.
