 Hannah Lucas, 22, moved to Aroostook County from Virginia to train her Siberian huskies for sled racing. Lucas, who also works at a local convenience store, was inspired to help after seeing people at the highest risk of coronavirus come into the store to get essential supplies.Apr 3, 2020. 

She has been delivering groceries by dog sled for the past three weeks.

"We hit the grocery store first, and pick up everything we need just so we have all of that already and don't have to go back to the store, and we make stops along the way, giving the dogs stops along the way," Lucas said.

Lucas is paying for the groceries out of her own pocket.

She and her fiance, along with their 12 dogs, travel 50 to 75 miles per day to drop off groceries and medical supplies.

"They're really thankful, and they are so excited to see me and the dogs whenever I show up with the groceries in hand," Lucas said.

Lucas has raced the Can-Am Crown sled dog race for the past two years. Her work to help her community also provides training for her dogs.

"They are really conditioned dogs. They are used to having 300 pounds total in the sled, so the bags of groceries don't really compare to the bags of sand I use to train them before the racing season starts," Lucas said.

As long as there is snow on the ground, Lucas said she will keep delivering, hopefully until the end of April.

"I don't think I would have seen myself doing this, but things are changing really fast and I just want to be able to like, help mitigate, make things a little easier for people," Lucas said

Maine's contingency plan for vaccine.

Maine's contingency plan for blizzard conditions.

Maine has held meetings with transportation officials and the National Guard to work through worst-case scenarios, Shah said. If there’s a flood or loss of power, a backup generator for the freezer would kick in. If shots are transported during a blizzard, the vaccine convoy could follow 30 minutes behind a salt truck

Ya I think we got this ... 

Dr Shah added.

Dr. Shah added, “The other reason we start with healthcare workers and first responders is because we’d also like to tap them to make sure they are part of our vaccine force. That’s one of the reasons why having them be first in line for the vaccine is critical.  But more generally speaking, these data show now that there is going to be a shift in the conversation from vaccines to vaccination. That’s what we at the Maine CDC have been planning and preparing for for months now, is the process of administering and distributing the vaccine.”  CRH has been taking part in the planning stage with the Maine CDC
