School of Medicine Students Volunteer in Duke’s COVID-19 Vaccine Clinic

Duke medical and health professions students are playing a prominent role in the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines to the Duke Health community. 

More than 100 students from the School of Medicine have volunteered to assist with the administration of the vaccines at Duke vaccination sites. As of January 13, 2021, more than 18,000 vaccinations have been administered to Duke Health employees. Last week, Duke began vaccinating community members over the age of 75. 

Will You Put the Hat On?

A paper hat made by a five-year-old, especially one that doesn’t quite look like a hat at first glance, may not appear to have anything to do with racism. But for Kenyon Railey, MD, and those listening to his presentation during the Duke University School of Medicine’s “Turning a Moment into a Movement” event last June, the hat has to do with just that and more.
