With the assistance of student pharmacists like Alexsandra Nilges, the University of Kentucky plans to distribute 500 gallons of sanitizer every 2 weeks throughout the fall to support area health care providers and patients. “All of the hand sanitizer was cleared out of the grocery store …”, I overheard from a nurse on the team as I left a patient’s room. That was at the earliest stages of COVID–19, when we, the inpatient pharmacy interns, were still onsite conducting medication histories in person.  This was also right around the time the shortage...
