Students and staff can now get vaccinated on all three campuses of the University of the Free State.

For the month of October, Clicks Pharmacy will be doing vaccinations ( Johnson and Johnson) on the Bloemfontein Campus for staff and students. Clicks Pharmacy staff will be available on the campus in EXR 1(enter from the basketball courts), next to the screening site, on Wednesdays from 09:00 to 13:00. 

The following should be noted: 
• The COVID-19 vaccine will be administered free of charge.
• You can speed up the process by registering on the COVID-19 Vaccination Programme registration portal before you get to the vaccination site. Staff will be on stand-by to register those who have not yet done so.  
• Please bring positive identification, such as an ID book or driver’s licence.
• You will receive proof of your first vaccination via a vaccine card.

In addition to the vaccination site at the Universitas Academic Hospital in Bloemfontein, staff and students can also get vaccinated on the Qwaqwa and South campuses. Take note that the Qwaqwa Campus vaccination site is open on Wednesdays only.

Delegation from a medical institute in China visits the UFS
2007-09-12

 

A senior delegation from Changchun Advanced Medical Institute (CAMI) in China recently visited the University of the Free State (UFS) to explore possibilities of cooperation, especially in nursing science. Areas of focus will include staff and student exchange, semester abroad programmes, collaborative research projects and capacity building initiatives in English proficiency and various other courses. The possibility for students from CAMI to pursue a post-basic bachelor’s degree programme at the UFS School of Nursing will also be explored. This will be one of the first formal agreements between the UFS and an institution in China. The agreement will be formalised during a reciprocal visit led by Prof. Letticia Moja (Dean: Faculty of Health Sciences at the UFS) to Changchun during September. Pictured here are, from the left: Dr Yuan Zhao Xin (International Communication, CAMI), Prof. Anita van der Merwe (Head of the UFS School of Nursing), Prof. Gert van Zyl (Head of the UFS School of Medicine), Prof. Dr Xin Li (Chief Secretary, CAMI), Dr Santie van Vuuren (Head of the School for Allied Health Professions at the UFS), Prof. Moja and Dr Aldo Stroebel (Head of Internationalisation at the UFS).
