  • No deaths from COVID-19 reported in last week; where to be tested, vaccinated
    Delaware expects to get Johnson & Johnson vaccine as early as March 5.

    Delaware’s COVID-19 new cases, percentage of cases testing positive and hospitalizations all continue to fall, as the state widens ways to get vaccines near your home. Of note: No additional deaths were reported in the last week, with 1,679 Delawareans having died from the virus. As of Thursday, the state has had a total of 109,501 positive cases of COVID-19 among residents, but the seven-day average of new positive cases decreased to 30.6. The percentage of all tests that were positive is down to 1%, a drop from last week’s 1.7. In addition, only 26 people are hospitalized because of COVID, down 25 from last week. Four are critically ill, down nine from last week. The spread of variants continues low, with most of the mutant cases being the British strain. The Delaware Public Health Laboratory has sequenced 3,127 specimens for COVID-19 variant strains to date, including 75 within the past week. The Indian strain, which health officials fear because is it more infectious, decimated India and has spread quickly in England, still is showing only 11 cases. More, however, are likely to be circulating, because not all positive cases are sequenced to find the origin of the infection.   DE Wins! Prize winners in the state DE Wins! contest have claimed a lot of prizes. While not all have agreed to be be publicly identified, two more $5,000 dollar prize winners, two winners of an Annual Park Pass from Delaware State Parks, and the winner of a Funland Prize Package have claimed their prizes. Also, Logan Crotty of Lewes won the Shorebirds Prize Package and Theresa Preston of Millsboro won the Kent County Vacation package. Ten winners will be drawn for next week’s drawings. Prizes offered include another Funland and Shorebirds Prize Package, more state park passes, $5,000 to two winners, free tolls for a year and a Sussex County vacation package. The only thing Delawareans need to do to be entered is to have been vaccinated in Delaware on or after May 25 if you are 18+.   Vaccination update As of Friday morning, 975,511 doses of COVID-19 vaccine have been given, according to the state’s immunization information system, DelVAX. Among Delawareans ages 12+, 495,985 have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, and 423,804 Delawareans are fully vaccinated. Of those, there have been 383 breakthrough cases of COVID-19, less than one-tenth of 1 percent.                Where to be vaccinated DMV sites The state’s Community Health Services section will offer Pfizer vaccine to all ages 12 and older at: Dover DMV – Mondays, 9 a.m. – Noon.

  • Senate passes bill banning rental of units with bed bugs

    The State Senate on Tuesday unanimously passed a bill to prohibit landlords from renting units with known bed-bug infestations. The bill outlines the steps landlords must follow when an infestation is discovered. Senate Substitute 1 for Senate Bill 240 requires landlords to eradicate any bed bugs discovered within 60 days of initial occupancy. They must have their units inspected for bed bugs within 120 hours of receiving a complaint from a tenant and provide pest management services within 14 days.  Landlords would also be required to inspect adjoining units, notify tenants of the findings and provide remediation where needed. Written records of previous bed bug infestations, complaints, and remediation efforts would have to be kept for two years. “This legislation is about tenants’ rights,” said Sen. Laura Sturgeon, D-Brandywine Hundred. “Landlords must ensure that every unit they rent out is safe and livable for tenants, which includes the guarantee that there are no bed bugs on the premises.” New Hampshire and Connecticut have similar laws on the books. The bill will now advance to the House of Representatives for consideration.

  • Your guide to the July Fourth weekend in Delaware
    Delaware's July Fourth is sure to include firework displays, beachgoers, live music, and more.

    July Fourth – a day filled with BBQs, backyard cornhole, and beach trips – is just around the corner. With travel agencies expecting around 12% of the state’s population to pack up and head out on vacation, here’s what to know about Independence Day in the First State: Travel AAA Mid-Atlantic expects 116,000 Delawareans to travel at least 50 miles for the holiday, up 3% from last year, partly because COVID restrictions are virtually nonexistent at Delaware beaches and their restaurants and stores.  More than 90% of travelers will reach their destination by driving, despite gas averaging $4.78 a gallon.  With the help of  INRX, a traffic analytics company, AAA Mid-Atlantic says the best times to hit the road are: If you are anxious about driving around Delaware, you can check road conditions by looking at the Delaware Department of Transportation’s real-time traffic cameras. Find them DelDOT.gov or the DelDOT mobile app. To help ease traffic at the beaches Monday, July 4, DART Routes 2, 4, 5, 6, 13, 15, 33, 40 and 64 will operate on a Sunday schedule, Route 47 will operate on its Saturday schedule, and DART’s Route 305 Beach Connection and Beach Bus services will operate on a normal schedule.  Their 305 Beach Connection provides transportation between Wilmington and Rehoboth Beach on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays through Sept. 5.   Fares are $2 per zone.  The one-way cash fare is $6 from Wilmington and Middletown, $4 from Dover and Frederica.   DelDOT encourages riders to buy a 3-zones daily pass for $10, which can also be used on all beach bus services. Riders can download the DART Pass mobile app for quick options, and the DART Transit app for alerts about delays, detours and more.  Here’s how AAA Mid-Atlantic sees the weekend playing out, in regard to modes of transportation: Those parking by the beach will have to pay fares. In Rehoboth Beach, meters will charge $3 per hour; in Lewes, it’s $2.50 per hour at the beach and $1.50 in the town; Bethany Beach is also $2.50 per hour; and Dewey Beach is $3 per hour. Weather for July Fourth Weekend Friday will be a hot one along Delaware’s coastline, with its beach towns nearing 90 degrees on a breezy and sunny day, according to the National Weather Service.  Travelers might need to pack umbrellas if they plan on hitting the beaches Saturday or Sunday.  Saturday’s forecast calls for 88 degree weather, but a 50% chance of rain after 11 a.m. Thunderstorms are more likely to roll in through the afternoon, with a 70% chance of rain after 8 p.m. Sunday will be wet, but will cool off, with a high of 79 and a 50% chance of rain and thunderstorms after 2 p.m.  The weather on Independence Day on Monday seems to be the best of the weekend, with a high of 85 and mostly sunny skies to bring in the firework celebrations.  Monday evening will be partly cloudy and a cool 70 degrees. Weekend events  For a listing of fireworks around the state, go here. Other events include: Hockessin Athletic Club, at 100 Fitness Way, will host a 5K for Fireworks run on June 30. Race organizers want to raise $15,000 for the town’s firework display.  Hockessin Fourth of July Festival includes neighborhood relays in the morning on the Fourth, a parade in the afternoon and fireworks at dusk. The best viewing will be from Swift Park, Piedmont Baseball Fields, Hockessin Library and Artesian Soccer Fields. Milton Memorial Park is hosting a festival from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on July Fourth. There will be games, dunk tanks, entertainment, food, water balloon fights, sack races, the bike decorating contest & parade, and other activities.  Bethany Beach’s holiday celebration starts with a parade at noon July Fourth featuring floats decorated with a “Timeless Bethany” theme. The parade will also feature bands, autos, bicyclists and pedestrians. Evening events include a concert at 7:30 p.m. and the fireworks at dusk. Grain on the Rocks, a Lewes Beach restaurant, will have their annual waterfront pig roast. Attendees will be able to watch the Lewes fireworks show from the pier seating or deck seating. Bell Bottom Blues will perform at Classic American Golf Club at Lewes Beach from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on July Fourth. Attendance is free.   Jarek Rutz can be reached by email at [email protected] or by phone at (215) 450-9982. Follow him on Twitter @jarekrutz and on LinkedIn.

  • Walgreens, CVS to pay Delaware $43.6M opioid settlement

    Delaware stands to receive some $43.6 million from settlements with CVS and Walgreens over their roles in America’s opioid epidemic. In total, CVS will pay $5 billion and Walgreens will pay $5.7 billion, which will be distributed amongst states and municipalities involved in the litigation. The announcement comes just days after public health officials announced that Nov. 2022 was Delaware’s deadliest month on record for overdose fatalities, at 43.  That surpasses the previous monthly high total of 42 set in May 2022. November’s 43 deaths included 21 people from New Castle County, 18 from Sussex County and four from Kent County. Delaware’s share of Monday’s settlements will be placed in the state’s Prescription Opioid Settlement Distribution Fund created last year with the General Assembly’s unanimous passage of Senate Bill 166. The fund, which is overseen by an independent commission co-chaired by the attorney general and lieutenant governor, was created to ensure settlement money is used to remediate and abate the opioid crisis without being diverted for other purposes. Organizations can apply for grants to pay for opioid remediation programs at this link. Grants are capped at $100,000. Separately, Attorney General Kathy Jennings announced Monday that she has completed her review of and plans to join two separate national settlements with Teva and Allergan, both opioid manufacturers.   Those settlements, which will also go into the Prescription Opioid Settlement Distribution Fund, will bring the state an additional $25.2 million. Monday’s settlement announcements are in addition to agreements with Johnson & Johnson, AmerisourceBergen, Cardinal Health, McKesson, Purdue Pharma, Walmart, Mallinckrodt, McKinsey & Co., and Endo, totaling roughly $250 million.  “The true cost of the epidemic is measured in lives, not dollars,” Jennings said in a news release Monday. “This is an especially painful time of year for families who have lost loved ones, and I am mindful of the fact that no amount of money can fully repair the damage done to our state.” In addition to the financial terms, the settlements with CVS and Walgreens — and an earlier settlement with Walmart — require the pharmacies to monitor, report, and share data about suspicious activity related to opioid prescriptions.  In a statement, Walgreens said the settlement will allow the company to focus on the health and wellbeing of its customers and patients while making positive contributions to address the opioid crisis. “We believe this is in the best interest of the company and our stakeholders at this time, and allows our pharmacists, dedicated healthcare professionals who live and work in the communities they serve, to continue playing a critical role in providing education and resources to help combat opioid misuse and abuse,” Walgreens said. In another statement, CVS said it was pleased to resolve the claims. “We are committed to working with states, municipalities and tribes, and will continue our own important initiatives to help reduce the illegitimate use of prescription opioids,” said Thomas Moriarty, chief policy officer and general counsel with CVS Health. What’s next? Each state will have an opportunity to review and join the settlements with Walmart, Walgreens, CVS, Teva and Allergan.  After states join, local governments around the country will be able to sign on during the first quarter of 2023.  Jennings has already announced Delaware will join each settlement. Payments are structured to ensure critical support in early years as well as sustained resources over time, the attorney general’s office said. Most of Walmart’s amount will be paid during the first year; Allegan’s payments will be over 7 years; CVS’s payments will be spread over 10 years; Teva’s payments will be over 13 years; and Walgreens’ payments will be spread over 15 years.  If there is sufficient sign-on, the first payments will begin arriving in 2023. Delaware led negotiations along with the attorneys general of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Nebraska, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, and Texas.  Opioid Abatement and Remediation Grant Program The Prescription Opioid Settlement Distribution Commission is now accepting applications through its newly-launched website. Current available funding for the Commission is approximately $3 Million. The 2022 Phase 1A Application will be open from Nov. 30, 2022 through Dec. 31, 2022. Applicants may apply to be considered for grants and intragovernmental transfers of $100,000 or less from the Prescription Opioid Impact Fund. Applications can be submitted on the program’s website, which also includes further guidance on the application process. Permitted Uses Money in the Impact Fund must be used for activities in one or more of the following categories: Opioid addiction prevention. The following opioid addiction services: Inpatient and outpatient treatment programs and facilities, including short-term and long-term residential treatment programs and recovery residences. Services relating to treating substance use disorder for the underinsured and uninsured. Emergency assistance relating to prescription opioids, including purchasing pharmaceuticals used to reverse the effect of an opioid overdose. Peer support programs. Services to address adverse social determinants of health that act as a barrier to recovery, including family support services. Prohibited Uses Money in the Opioid Funds may not be used to supplant existing state or local government funding. Money in the Settlement Fund may not be used in a manner inconsistent with the terms of the settlement, judgment, confirmation order, or other governing documents.
