CDC issues updated COVID-19 recommendations

On April 19, 2023, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention updated COVID-19 vaccine recommendations. The Moderna and Pfizer monovalent two dose primary series is no longer recommended for use in the U.S., and those who have never been vaccinated are now recommended to receive one bivalent dose instead of the discontinued two dose monovalent series. The CDC also recommends an additional bivalent dose for those 65 years and older and for those who are immunocompromised. For those students and employees who are currently compliant with the UC Vaccine Policy, no additional action is required as a result of these updated CDC recommendations. If you have questions about the updated recommendations please call or email Contact Tracing and Vaccine Navigation Services at 949-824-2300 or contacttracing@uci.edu. For updated information, please visit UCI Forward.

UCI hosts Sustainability Challenge

The Sustainability Challenge is the second Hacking Student Success event, which was created by the Office of Data and Information Technology and the ANTrepreneur Center to give students an opportunity to address campus issues that affect their own experiences and the resources to develop solutions that can make a real impact in their community. The ANTrepreneur Center created five categories to guide student projects this year: Energy, water, air, liveable spaces and food/waste. Keynote speakers this year included Michael Houlihan (left) and Bonnie Harvey, the founders of Barefoot Wine.

#UCIconnected spotlights student, alumni, faculty and staff photos, essays, shoutouts, hobbies, artwork, unusual office decorations, activities and more. Send submissions via email or post on social media with the #UCIconnected hashtag.

If you currently have symptoms of COVID-19 or recently tested positive, do not come to campus, or if you currently live on campus stay in your residence, and follow instructions for reporting your case or assessing symptoms on the UCI Forward page. Close contacts to a COVID-19 case are not required to stay home or quarantine, but should follow guidance for close contact instructions for masking and testing on the UCI Forward page.
