Vaccines

For Master of Public Health (MPH) student Jorge Garcia, the COVID-19 pandemic provided an opportunity to obtain real-world experience in infectious disease surveillance by applying the skills he learned throughout his MPH courses while working at the Fairfax County Health Department.

Mandatory vaccinations and a return to wearing masks indoors on campus are two of the primary tools George Mason University will use this fall to provide a safe living, learning and working environment.

Mason's Michael Buschmann and his team have developed technology that could help make COVID-19 vaccines less costly, with fewer side-effects and more available.

The entire Mason community is being asked to upload their vaccination status by Aug. 1.

There are currently no COVID-19 cases among Mason's more than 50,000 students, faculty and staff

Results of a recently published survey by a team that includes Mason faculty shows that there is still critical public health work to be done to combat COVID 19.

Mason's mobile vaccination clinics are helping to provide COVID-19 shots to communities most in need of them
