At Duke Health, our top priority is safety and protecting the health and well-being of our patients, their loved ones and our team members. We are closely coordinating with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS) and local health departments to develop safe, efficient and equitable plans for COVID-19 vaccine distribution.
This webpage is available as a resource for you to make an informed decision for receiving vaccination. Currently, there are no plans to require COVID-19 vaccination for any Duke University, Duke University Health System or PDC employees. Duke University, Duke University Health System and PDC employees will receive the COVID-19 vaccine at no cost.
If you have any questions about the vaccination or our distribution plan, please check out this list of frequently asked questions. You can also contact stopcovid@duke.edu
