of LEXINGTON, Ky. (Dec. 17, 2020)  As COVID-19 cases escalated across the state, a group of University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service volunteers in northeast Kentucky stepped up to make sure local health care workers had proper protection to administer COVID-19 tests. The Lewis County Extension office was contacted by Primary Plus, which operates 10 clinics across the region. The health care company faced a challenge in getting the necessary surgical gowns they needed for their employees who were administering COVID-19 tests. “At the beginning of the pandemic, I contacted the extension office because PPE was hard to get and we had exhausted all of our suppliers,” said Steve Arnold, Primary Plus corporate compliance officer. “I knew extension had groups of sewers, because my wife had taken some extension classes.”
