Notice: FacSen Chair Update on Vaccination Data

Dear Colleagues — I am sharing the latest vaccination data for the WSU system. The denominator for total proportions is not available yet, but for the Pullman campus 60-70% of students are likely accounted for with these numbers. For example, if we have as many as 20,000 students in Pullman this semester, then 66% of students are represented in the table below. It will be another week or two before tallies are complete and vaccination status is completed. WSU will actively engage with students who declared personal exemptions to remind them that they need to get vaccinated.

For those who have reported, >90% are reporting that vaccination is complete (system-wide). Even if all undeclared students claim exemptions moving forward (a very unlikely scenario), we will still have a much higher vaccination compliance than the state overall and certainly for some of the counties where our campuses are located. Please recall that students have to provide documentation for their vaccination status and barring evidence for widespread fraud, these numbers should come with high confidence.
