It's in the interest of the public to keep people healthy, so canceling large events or ones that draw a crowd is probably smart to do. There's always next year!

Virus needs new hosts. Don't give the virus that opportunity.

Better safe then sorry

Sam Ackerman

Then why do you leave home at all?

Brian Klein

Safety first!

Katie Graber

I think we have a responsibility to the immunocompromised and elderly around us to do what we can to prevent the spread.

Sam Ackerman

Then they can stay home.

Kelly McDiffett

Public safety is essential

Heidi Owen

Yes, should close the border too.

Doug Watt

for good health and to protect the vulnerable, better safe than sorry.

LisaRae Hilton

Only because when there are big events people neglect to keep up their hygiene, washing hands and are in close proximity to one another causing it to spread more quickly.

Sounds like common sense right????

If people are concerned over COVID-19, they can choose to stay home from or avoid an event. The entire event should not be canceled over a virus that's killed less people than the flu this year. Show Less

Trump overrides all even dictators with their politicized science myth. Public health officials rubber stamp but don't go on field. All cases & TRO will be overturned. 1st amendment. abuse of power

Depends on where you live, i.e., Italy or China. So far, it hasn't arrived here in Bend, tho it probably will eventually. Until it does, I think events, especially outdoor ones, are probably safe.

Sam Ackerman

This is all over blown by to much media hype. Now I'm off to buy TP.

People need to be smart...do NOT touch your face after you have been in public...use hand washing/or hand sanitizer when you cannot wash...people need to stay home if they are ill

Jim Partridge

The sky is not falling people. If you want to stay home, fine. But don't impose your irrational fears on the rest of us.

Austin Wills

How do you feel about this question a month later? The U.S is leading the world in the total number of infections/mortality rate and you have the nerve to say this. Educate yourself.

We need that money in our own country to help our schools, Medicare and education. Don’t you care about our neighbors and communities?

Dave

That money won't help our neighbors and schools when Iranian nukes start hitting our allies and eventually us! That is their goal as they have stated for years!!

Ka San

If it even needs saying, the Military Industrial Complex is the MOST bloated budget of the entire federal budget. If our current "completely-in-over-his-head" Def Sec + idiot prez hadn't started a completely unnecessary war, we would not have depleted stores of weapons and this be on nobody's radar!

Dave

Ka San, You sound like a radical liberal. Guess you'd rather have nukes start flying around in the middle east and then closer to home in a couple years.

As a tax payer and resident of Deschutes County I am tired of my tax dollars being used to clean up the filth the homeless people leave behind. If this is a deterrent for them living there then we won’t have to clean it up again. Thus saving tax payer dollars and the rocks are a better look.
