Vaccine Deadline to Comply with Federal Order Revised to Jan. 18, 2022

The deadline for all Creighton employees to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or obtain a medical or religious exemption under Executive Order 14042 has changed to Jan. 18, 2022.

Individuals are considered fully vaccinated two weeks after receiving the second dose of two-dose vaccines, such as Pfizer and Moderna, or two weeks after a single dose of Johnson & Johnson.

Therefore, Jan. 4, 2022, is the last day individuals can get their final dose to meet the Jan. 18, 2022, deadline. Specific vaccine deadlines to meet the requirement are as follows:

  • Johnson & Johnson – single dose by Jan. 4, 2022.
  • Moderna – two-dose vaccine requiring four weeks between doses; first dose by Dec. 7, second dose by Jan. 4, 2022.
  • Pfizer – two-dose vaccine requiring three weeks between doses; first dose by Dec. 14, second dose by Jan. 4, 2022.

Upload proof of vaccination to the BirdHouse after each dose.
