A plan to create a permanent emergency home-heating oil reserve for the Northeast has died in committee on capitol hill. The provision was removed from a spending bill, along with a measure that would re-authorize the president's power to dip into the national oil stockpile.

NH--Flu Shots dewlaw Officials say they have plenty of flu vaccine -- New Hampshire public health officials say the state's shipments of flu vaccine has been delayed, but they don't expect any supply problems. Delays in developing one of the three strains of virus used in this year's vaccine have slowed down making the medicine. As a result, vaccination clinics in areas, including southern New Hampshire, have been pushed back from early October to late October and November. Charles Haenel, head of the state immunization program, says he's not sure what the delays will mean for the state. He says there probably will be an adequate supply, but until they vaccine is in hand, there's no guarantee. People over 50, or people with health problems, are encouraged to be vaccinated during flu season. It begins in late fall and can run as late as April. AP-NY-09-29-00 1327EDT |
