Andy Beshear hailed the authorization of the Moderna vaccine against the novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19), saying this second vaccine will be administered soon in the commonwealth.

COVID-19: LCDHD anticipates vaccine by end of 2020 By Amy Tomlinson, Lake Cumberland District Health Department The LCDHD is anticipating possibly receiving COVID-19 vaccine in the Lake Cumberland area by the end of the year. Our partnerships with you will become even more valuable in the weeks and months ahead as we rely on you to help us spread the word about the vaccine and it's availability. The first shipments we will receive are expected to be very limited and will be reserved for healthcare workers and long term care residents and staff. As the vaccine supplies increase into the Spring, more priority groups will be added. We will advise you all of when those events occur. We will all have to work together to get the word out to our communities. For now, we would appreciate your assistance in asking the public to remain patient and to please respect the priority groups that have been established by the state. There is sound reasoning for why certain groups are placed ahead of others in line for the vaccine. We MUST protect our most vulnerable and highest risk populations first. 2020-12-20 17:51:23 | Comments | Printable version
January 23, 1979 Around Adair with Ed Waggener The article below first appeared in the January 23, 1979, issue of the Adair County News. Topics included the cost of snow removal, the new Amish community in Pellyton, predictions for the local area economy by 2015, and Richard Lee Walker's offer to teach his Sunday school class the Hula dance. --Pen By Ed Waggener City running ahead on snow removal The zeal of the new city administration in removing snow last year was admirable, but it cost money. In 1978, according to Councilman Charles Barnes, the city spent around $30,000 for snow removal. That was approximately 10 percent of the whole annual city budget! This year, we have been lucky. There hasn't been as much snow, for one thing. For another--and this is good or bad according to how you look at it--Nature has done more of the ice cutting. We've had slick streets. They were especially bad Sunday, but our town's treasury will be in better shape. A lot of private work I guess another big reason for the lower cost to the city is that there are more private individuals clearing snow now than ever. Up on Lindsey Hill, the snow plow was going Sunday afternoon, clearing sidewalks and drives around the campus.
