Do you think the deadline for the COVID-19 vaccination mandate should be extended for everyone?

Yes, we need more time! Yes, we need more time!

No, why do we keep delaying it? No, why do we keep delaying it?

Yes, we need more time!

I think the vaccination mandate should be extended because this deadline is too soon. A lot of people are still doing their research.

NO ONE should have to get the Vaccine...PERIOD! YES I got it!

Robert Northrup

Over 100 people die in Oregon every day. More people die because they are obese than any other condition. Obesity and COVID will most likely be a recipe for death. Why don't we require people to maintain a healthy body weight.

Latterdaysaint

No one be forced to put something in their body they don't believe in

Kevin Crabtree

Lets GO Brandon

Christena

Yes extend it indefinitely. There should be no mandate.

Rob Mozz

There shouldn't be a mandate at all, forcing people to inject foreign substances into their bodies. Especially considering a virus that has a 99% survival rate where 80% of the people that get it don't even know they have it or barely feel symptoms.

John Philo

The mandates actually should be eliminated permanently.

No, why do we keep delaying it?

I think the deadline should be kept because it will make more people get the vaccine in the coming weeks.

anti mask anti vac anti science ] but pro stupid

The majority of people who are going to vote “yes” are the same people that will refuse it all the same, as they have since it was initially rolled out. Rip the band aid off.

Kenneth Emmrich

Isn't the answer obvious. Get vaccinated to drastically reduce your chances of getting Covid.

Rick Lewis

St Charles gets portable morgue, Are you kidding?

Robert Northrup

What are they dying of, it certainly isn't COVID. We have only had 4 or 5 people die with COVID in the last month in Deschutes County.

k san

I don't see the point in delaying it. The people for whom the mandate applies have had ample time to get it.

Mike Everstone

This is simple. Are you (News 21) empowering people to feel comfortable in not taking the vaccine? Allowing them to further to put our community and country in a state of directly killing me, my family and themselves? You, as a news agency providing true information should be honest.

This made an error! I voted NO and it recorded yes! They shouldn't {and ALL} shouldn't be allowed on all public land because they do not follow rules! Dumping garbage, open flames during fire season, over extending time stay, etc. And now because of them our insurance is going up and land value goin

The homeless are not residents, they are squatters!

Kayla Sulak

These people have had MONTHS of notice. Nobody ever told them it's acceptable to post up long-term there, so they shouldn't have planted their belongings out there if they have no way to move it. This sets a bad precedent if they're allowed to stay.

Richard Williams

I can no longer use this area of public land for fear of walking into a homeless camp or being attacked by their "pets". This land is for all of us to use, not just the homeless.

Joanna Lee

Safety should be the biggest concern here. If these people are homeless, they can travel to another area to reside. Forest service doesn't always implement preventative measures. So this being one of the times they do. Its important to make sure it happens. Before there is anymore devastating fires.

Shane Murray

The homeless have trashed the forest out there. It makes me sick

Greg Deadbolt Leach

Time to move these people to the Attorneys and Judges front lawns!!!

Karen Thrower

The China Hat area has been badly damaged and disrespected by campers.

Jeannie H.

How is this their "home"? Have they paid property tax like the rest of us? How is this state even justifying this?!?!

Nancy

They’ve had plenty of time to move. Why can the homeless trash/burn our beautiful forest? Tax paying citizens are only allowed to camp for 14 days! What about the homeowners rights near China Hat, they need to feel safe in their own community! This has gone on way too long and I’m surprised!

Lynn Marie Leehmann

If you look at the Federal Regulations for camping on Federal land it states only 14 days. These people have over stated their welcome, they need to go and they have known about this for at least six months.

Brad Aimone

It is ironic the Bend Equity Group has filed a lawsuit to block the closure. Where is the indignation for the horrible environmental damage done by these campers who’ve violated the USFS long standing limit of a 14 day stay in a primitive camp site?

Nancy Roquero

This has gone on too long. The forests near Woodside community and other neighborhoods need fire protection and protection from the homeless with guns and vicious dogs and the garbage left behind. The homeless have had plenty of notice.

Lisa York

the USFS has been planning this burn since Oct 2019... more than enough time for the homeless/advocacy groups to come up with a plan to move...

Debbie Boyd

This has been going on for way too long & it is ridiculous to postpone as they have known this needs to be done. The forest needs to be protected & these do gooders are too late to the game & so much time & money spent on homeless with ZERO results. We need DOGE. for Oregon!

Pam

We need to ensure that the lands are managed for the enjoyment/needs of all peoples, not a select few

pamcuny

I worry every year WHO is in the woods starting fires, whether deliberate or unintentional consequences…

Jeff Sanders

I live near China Hat and used to love going out the with my dog. Once weapons started be pulled on people that stopped. I want my forest back. Good riddance to the whole lot. Don't ever come back.

Latterdaysaint

There needs to be more homeless shelters in the city!

Kim Kahl

The danger of fire starting in this area is incredibly high and impacts large subdivisions. It is mandatory to close this area for the safety of all. This should not be a place for camping to be allowed as it has been.

He should be FIRED immediately as he is the individual in charge of the entire department. He must set the standard of honesty and integrity for both staff and the Public. What type of leader is this? Why is this even being questioned? He faced charges in La Mesa, California as well!

steven

I just heard the recording. He lied about lying. Gotta go.

David Kline

Sad to see this happen.

Susan Kate Mayer

Good job DA! Glad someone is doing their job

Ceiling Cat9001

Recall him.

Michael Hickey

Why is he still in this position, come on Deschutes Co. This is pathetic.

Laura Wattenbarger

How can he be trusted to be truthful in anything if he lied about even just this one thing? A man in his position shouldn't be lying about anything at all and the fact that he did makes him untrustworthy 100%.

Anne King

If he can't be honest about such a basic thing as his education, he can't be trusted with Deschutes County's safety! What else has he lied about? He should resign!

SunnySunshinestein

He needs to resign.
