Someone in my extended family got sick.

Kaylayriee Clark

We have been fortunate enough to have had a COVID free household until this variant. It spreads too quickly. My 9 yr old daughter got it from school though I never recieved noticed of contact with a confirmed case though it was confirmed. Now my whole family is getting it a couple days apart.

Two adults, two children. All unvacinated.

I had Delta in early November and Omicron seems more like a normal cold for those I know who have had it,

Amy D. Bell

Because the last 2 years have been a joke. Other than over-reaching government, unnecessary mandates and irresponsible media I would not have known any difference between Covid and the flu season. The numbers have been exaggerated since the beginning.

My mom is 84 she got it , I did not, but just basic cold symptoms is all, no big deal. Wake up people look at the #'s Oregon 9,600 cases and 35 deaths, most if not all for the Delta variant. Omicron spread s easily but is so mild! So tired of the fear mongers! I live by faith not by fear!!!

Dianne Price

So far we're all ok!!

Tim Collins

No but I just had a thought. If you could give covid to some you wanted to kill, you would not have to worry about, being convicted of shooting them. They would say they died from covid!

Gabe West

I currently have it and I'm just really exhausted

Perhaps? Hiding the un-housed in various random locations doesn't solve much. This is just another band-aid solution! Seems just the latest adaptation of "kicking the can down the road"...?

People should not have to put up with annoying intrusive lights that inconsiderate neighbors install
