University of Louisville Health has opened the state’s largest drive through COVID-19 vaccination site at Cardinal Stadium’s Purple lot today, April 12 to all current students and anyone above the age of 16.

Former university Provost Beth Boehm sent an email to staff and students about the opening toward the end of March.

“This high-volume, drive through vaccination site will have 24 lanes to accommodate the thousands of vaccination U of L Health plans to administer each day,” Boehm said in the March 31 email.

Due to vaccine supply, individuals are not able to chose which vaccine they want to get. The vaccine is also free of cost.

To schedule an appointment for vaccination, sign up through U of L Health’s website. For any questions about the vaccine, more information is available on U of L Health’s FAQ page.
