In an effort to prevent a Boston University-style measles outbreak at Harvard, University Health Services (UHS) has begun an aggressive program to immunize any students, faculty or staff who may be susceptible to measles in an effort to prevent a possible epidemic.
Only 20 Harvard students have stopped by UHS to check their immunization history, despite warnings this week that the measles could spread to Harvard, Sholem Postel, director of medical services at UHS, said yesterday.
Organized under the auspices of UHS, the counseling service, dubbed "Contact," will address general problems relating to sexual identity and adjustment within the Harvard community.
Student counselors will work under the supervision of UHS clinical social worker Nadja B. Gould and Rev. G. Stewart Barns of the United Ministry.
According to the UHS Environmental Health and Safety Office, 89 bike related injuries were treated during the last school year, a slight increase from 82 the previous year.
