State officials today released the schedule of H1N1 vaccinations at schools that will begin next week. The H1N1 (swine flu) nasal spray vaccine will be given to elementary pupils with parental permission. Older students may receive an injectable version of the vaccine at a later time, according to a news release from the Division of Public Health and Department of Education.

Update, Wed. 11/4: Delaware's Division of Public Health will open a call line at 10 a.m. today (Wed.) to take questions concerning the swine flu virus.
Delawareans can call (866) 408-1899 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. weekdays to find out who should get a flu shot and where vaccine is available.

We got a call from DS's high school tonight saying that they still don't know the date of their shots...and that they were extending the acceptance of consent forms...good thing as DS fessed up he forgot to turn his form in.....I could have kicked his BUTT.

I wanted to start a new discussion, but I have never done that before and I don't know how... .
DelawareOnline has a couple of pictures of children getting the nasal H1N1 vaccine, but the people giving the vaccine are not wearing gloves....what's up with that???? Maybe I am just being picky, but I think anyone handling medicine, vaccines, etc., should be wearing gloves, don't you? I would be curious to know if they are using hand sanitizer after each vaccine because they are touching the child's face.

DD's school isn't on this week's schedule either. I'm hoping for next week.

Does anyone else find it odd that Colonial isn't on the list at all for week 1?

The Swine Flu vaccine is a systematic killing of our children. Parents wake up. Do some research. Read articles such as the one below. The nasal vaccine is live virus that stays in a recipients nose for up to 2 weeks and thus is easily spread to members of the family and others. The flu itself has proven to be less serious than normal seasonal flu. Check the ingredients and check the facts. Ask for the vaccine insert not the "Form Letter" that schools and drug stores hand out. Do you homework, your child's life may depend on it. http://www.lewrockwell.com/sardi/sardi124.html Save your chidren a life of misery. UB1943
