The flu shot is the only way to avoid the flu. It always works for me!

They cut the risk, but do not always prevent. Even so, they make symptoms less debilitating.

Mou Chat Reed

I haven't had the flu.

Richard Dillard

The few years I did not get the shot I got the flu and every year I get the shot I do not get sick. So I get the flu shot.

I use to do customer service, with plenty of people that came to the counter. Many people had colds & we're sick. The flu shots helped me from getting sick & bringing it home to my family & others

The flu shot doesn't always work. Some years I get it, and still get sick!

I don't take flu shots, last time I got flu shots I got sicker than I ever had. I don't trust what's in them also. I think their deadly.

Sam Ackerman

The only time i have ever had a flu shot was while in the Navy. 20 some years later with out flu shoots I think I have had the Flu once maybe twice. I just dont get sick.

Lynn Huntley

For me, I can still get sick, but not as sick for as long. I don't think I have had the true flu, anyway. People have a tendency to say they have the flu when just sick with a bad cold.

Parking and city revenue out weigh the small gain in revenue the business say they receive.

Gary Dehm

Simply, they're unfair to other businesses. Each space represents potential income for one or multiple businesses. If parklettes are to remain, businesses should file an application per space with an associated annual fee, subject to increase rent cost/year. They cause more problems than they solve.

Pat Glandon

I don't shop downtown or eat due to lack of parking.

Since nobody sits outside in the cold of winter, why not remove all the outdoor eating areas at least in the winter??

Jay B Lane

Nobody is sitting outside in the winter months and Street dining should be limited May - October months. Also what is not needed is 4 season dining in these structures (walls. Heaters, etc) when restaurants have room inside. If eateries don't have room inside, shouldn't be taking public space

A few circles around the area, I always find a spot. It’s not any different than any other city. I like seeing people enjoying the outdoors. That’s why we live here.

NO, with all the info out there about scams, it is inexcusable for anyone savvy to be taken in by such. However, seniors are particularly vulnerable, and family should assist them in avoiding scams. I had to take away my mother's phone when she entered assisted living and later memory care.
