UNAM Opens Five-Day Mega Vaccination Center at Estadio Olímpico Universitario

A five-day, high-volume drive by UNAM with national health providers targets winter respiratory risks, staffed by more than 300 nurses.

Overview

  • The center runs November 10–14 from 9:00 to 15:00 at Estadio Olímpico Universitario (Parking 3) in Ciudad Universitaria.
  • Service is open to the general public, offering vaccines for influenza, COVID-19, pneumococcal disease and measles.
  • Organizers aim to administer about 100,000 doses as part of a seasonal prevention push before colder months.
  • More than 300 specialized nurses from IMSS, ISSSTE and Pemex apply the shots, with optional glucose and blood-pressure checks and plans for additional campus modules.
  • People with fever or active respiratory infections are advised not to attend, and outlets differ on documentation rules with many requesting ID or a vaccination card, especially for minors.
