Leading studies suggests that receiving booster vaccines is one of the most effective ways to protect yourself and the community against Omicron and other COVID-19 variants. 

For that reason, given data and counsel from public health experts indicating that booster shots are critical to enhancing immunity and public health, e世博esball大学将要求所有符合条件的学生, faculty and staff to receive a booster shot prior to the start of the spring semester, 或者等到他们有资格的时候.

If you completed your second Pfizer or Moderna vaccine less than 6 months ago or your J&不到两个月前, you may not be eligible for a booster by the time of the January 24, 2022 deadline. In that case, you will have 30 days from the day of your booster eligibility in spring semester to get and submit your booster. For example, 如果你在8月1日完成了mRNA疫苗系列, 2021, 你就有资格在2月1日接种强化疫苗, 2022年，直到3月1日, 2022年实现这一要求.

Individuals who previously received other World Health Organization-approved vaccinations should receive a Pfizer booster dose if they received their initial vaccine series at least six months ago, 按照疾病预防控制中心的指导

Xavier’s rules are different because we maintain the highest possible safety guidelines for our community, 这超出了疾病控制中心的指导方针. 我们也考虑NIH, CDC and World Health Organization in making decisions to determine the maximum safety of our community.

Xavier University will require all students – undergraduate, graduate, and professional – to be fully vaccinated as a condition of enrollment for the 2021–22 academic year. (2021年秋季疫苗信).  These requirements are designed to facilitate the resumption of full, in-person campus activity and reduce the risk of infection on campus and within the local community.

Xavier strongly urges members of its community to get an available appointment for vaccination wherever they can as soon as they become eligible. 任何5岁或5岁以上还活着的人, studying or working on Xavier’s campus is eligible to be vaccinated in Louisiana; see http://covidvaccine.la.gov/ 查看疫苗信息和地点. Out of state residents should contact their local or state authorities for information.

Given vaccine penetration in the US and projections related to supply in the coming months, it is our expectation that students in the United States should be able to get fully vaccinated prior to their arrival at Xavier. 假设疫苗持续可用, those students who are unable to access the COVID-19 vaccine prior to arrival, 尤其是国际学生, 应该能够在路易斯安那州接种疫苗, we expect, very likely on Xavier’s campus when they arrive in New Orleans.

The driving force behind our vaccination requirement for students is to protect the health and safety of our community—and the Xavier community—to the fullest extent possible, and to enable our students to engage in-person and more fully in various aspects of university life than they have since the onset of the pandemic.  Xavier will continue to make safety the primary consideration in its decision-making, and to rely on the most up-to-date scientific information available to make informed decisions about its operations.

As is the case with all vaccination requirements for students, students may request religious and medical exemptions from the COVID-19 vaccination requirements.

Xavier is currently accepting vaccines that are authorized in the United States by the FDA or those authorized by the World Health Organization (WHO).

We strongly encourage all eligible students to immediately seek out and receive COVID-19 vaccines that are nationally approved, 如果没有得到FDA或WHO的批准, wherever they are.

Xavier is awaiting guidance from US authorities on how to manage students who have received vaccines not approved for use in the US. We intend to facilitate the needs of these students (if any) based on this guidance.

The COVID-19 vaccine series should routinely be administered alone, with a minimum interval of 14 days before or after administration of any other vaccine.

People are considered fully vaccinated two weeks after receiving their second dose in a two-dose series, 比如辉瑞或Moderna疫苗, 或者接种单剂疫苗后两周, such as the Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine. If it has been less than two weeks since your last shot or if you still need to get your second dose, 你没有得到充分的保护. The date of your final dose of vaccine is Vaccinated Day 0, 从第15天开始，你将受到全面保护.
