  • President's Report to the Trustees
    PR 1 Office of the President May 4, 2021 1. UK’s COVID-19 Vaccination and Testing Efforts Expand Statewide The COVID-19 vaccination clinic at UK’s Kroger Field opened to the public in January and by February it had expanded to accommodate vaccinating nearly 450 Kentuckians an hour. Volunteers from various areas of the university have helped staff the clinic, including students and employees from the colleges of Medicine, Pharmacy, Dentistry, Health Sciences and Nursing working as immunizers and allowing the clinic to open on Saturday afternoons. Also, during February and March, UK partnered with the state and city of Lexington to offer mobile vaccine clinics to underserved areas. The Saturday clinics were held at Keeneland, First Baptist Church Bracktown, Shiloh Baptist Church and Charles Young Community Center. UK branched out even more in March, offering vaccines at Kentucky Dam Village and COVID-19 testing in Georgetown, Danville, Florence, and at the Bluegrass Community and Technical College campus in Lexington. Around half of UK’s students had been vaccinated by March, including many in health care programs, and a push began to get the remainder vaccinated by the end of the semester. On March 30, UK announced it was helping vaccinate other college campuses. Free vaccination and testing sites were set up at Bellarmine, Berea College, Centre, Eastern Kentucky University, Georgetown College, Kentucky State University, Spalding, Sullivan and Western Kentucky University as well as at Keeneland and the Toyota Manufacturing campus in Georgetown. April 8, UK administered its 200,000th dose of vaccine. 2.
