Delaware Schools started giving out the H1N1 Vaccine this week at many Delaware schools.
The Elementary School students will be getting the nasal spray while the older students will get the shots in the coming weeks. Those who wish for their children to receive the shots must sign a consent form prior to the vaccine being given.
It would be a great idea to check with your childs school to see when the vaccine will be available.

Chrysler is seeking the approval of the Federal bankruptcy court to sell the now closed auto plant in Newark Delaware.
According to (Reuters) the University of Delaware plans to purchase the 270 Acre plant for $24.25 million.

So what will the University of Delaware do with a extra 270 acres? The last news report I read said they were planning on using some of the land for medical research but the rumor around town is a new football stadium may be in the works also.
