Ellen hodges is Chief Of Staff for the yukon koskokwim health organization. There you go, all vaccinated. Reporter hodges calls it a race against time to get as many people as possible inoculated, especially in communities where multiple generations live together. Almost done . Almost done. Reporter there are so many challenges when it comes to getting these shots in arms. Why is it worth it . We have some of the highest case rates in the nation right now. And alaska natives are disproportionately affected by both hospitalizations and deaths. So getting our population which is primarily alaska native vaccinated is right now my number one priority. Reporter hodges has been a doctor in alaska for nearly two decades. She hasnt seen anything like this. Have you gone to these extents before . Not in this exact way and not for this exact reason. Reporter but extra effort includes holding the delicate vaccines in her lap on Bumpy Plane Rides and making sure the doses stay at the right temperature. You cant refreeze it, that destroys the vaccine and we didnt want to waste a drop of the precious resource. Reporter so you put it under your shirt .

Well still ahead on the cbs weekend news, unifying merica. How one police chief is helping his Community Heal from decades of Racial Injustice. Heres to the duers.

Reporter this is legrange, georgia, a city split almost equally along a racial line. Divided by Railroad Tracks and decades of inequality, injustice and hatred. Lou dekmar took an oath to protect everyone. I think the role of the police is almost like the hippocratic oath, which is first to do no harm. Reporter which he says begins with healing old wounds. Four years ago the legrange police chief publicly apologized for the 1940 lynching of a black teenager. The acknowledgment and apology is necessary. Reporter Chief Dekmar Atoning for the sins of the past includes working for a better future. Much of crime is impacted by social issues. Were hard on crime, were soft on people. You are a resource to the community. Reporter so he is partnering with dozens of local organizations like the arc, a homeless and Substance Abuse center run by yvonne lopez. How trusting are you of the police here . Well, i am very, very trusting considering where i come from, and its because of the outreach and stuff that they do here. No, i have never hugged a policeman. Reporter this city now stands as a model for Community Policing in georgia and across the nation. The key, says dekmar, is trust. 17yearold Sidrick Cameron was a freshman in high school when he heard the chiefs apology. It made a big difference to see the police chief in my own city make a promise to move forward and to do better. Reporter dekmar kept that promise. His department supports an s. A. T. Course which puts cameron and 300 others on a path to higher education. How much of your current academic position do you credit to that prep program . I give it all to this prep class for allowing me to have knowledge instead of just learning. Reporter living his dream at Martin Luther king, jr. s alma mater. We havent made it to the mountaintop yet, but i believe that if we keep this going and keep inspiring and mentoring, that one day we will reach that mountaintop. Reporter Errol Barnett, cbs news, legrange, georgia. Duncan next on the cbs weekend news, he found his calling by serving up a slice of inspiration. It wont raise Blood Pressure the way that advil® aleve® or motrin® sometimes can. For trusted relief, trust tylenol®. Advanced nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer can change everything.

Ive been taking prevagen for about three years now. People say to me periodically, man, youve got a memory like an elephant. Its really, really helped me tremendously. Prevagen. Healthier brain.

In the debate over whether pizza crust should be thin or thick, put Nick Diesslin firmly on the side of tough. Do you eat the pizza afterward. I definitely dont eat it afterwards because it is a little bit different than actual pizza dough that you would make for cooking. Because when diesslin competes in something called pizza acrobatics, the dough needs to survive five minutes ofheavy duty heaving. How did you get into pizza acrobatic . When i was in Middle School i saw Somebody Throwing Pizza and i was just like astonished. I was a really shy kid but i wanted to like get myself ou there. He sure is. Diesslin has taken on the alter ego of pizzaman, and so far has been runnerup on the sports biggest stage in las vegas. But his first message to shy kids like him, find your passion. I would love to inspire and what are we being inspired by . You can take something that you are inspired by and learn with it. I wanted to be good at it. And i wasnt sure if i could but i focused and brought enough passion to it to make it come to life. Anybody can do that. Never settle for a slice of life when the world can be your pie.
