LEXINGTON, Ky. (April 9, 2021) President Eli Capilouto updated the University of Kentucky campus today on COVID-19 vaccination progress. His message is below.
Dear Campus Community,
Late yesterday, we met another important milestone in our efforts to make our community – and all those we serve – healthier and safer: We administered our 200,000th vaccine dose in the fight against COVID-19.
That’s 200,000 injections of healing and hope. That’s 200,000 shots that represent thousands of members of our university and health care communities who have volunteered and made this fight their focus for more than a year. That’s 200,000 steps – some small, some large, all important – toward returning to more normal operations and the lives we long to share with loved ones, friends and families.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (April 7, 2021) It’s a mission the University of Kentucky strives to live up to each and every day – to be the University of, for and with Kentucky.
Now, you can be part of that mission to meet this unprecedented moment and help create a healthier, safer community.
Kentuckians, regardless of the phase they fall into, are encouraged to request an appointment for a COVID-19 vaccine through UK’s vaccination clinic at vaccine.ukhc.org.
The need is significant: The numbers of new COVID-19 cases have plateaued this week in Kentucky after multiple weeks of declines. Incidence rates are up across much of the country and around the world. A vaccine is the best defense against a re-emergence or surge of the virus.
