It's inevitable that COVID-19 will keep spreading once we return to normal.

I have not heard that we have sufficient testing and contact tracing resources. We only have 24 ICU beds at St. Charles Bend. Tourists will bring in the virus from other parts of Oregon.

Larry Langdon

common sense!!!!!

Tracy Thompson

Those who aren’t haven’t been educating themselves about Covid-19. People will come, cases will increase and we will be in worse shape then we started. If lucky enough to survive you are not the same.

k san

Yes, it inevitably will spike when we start congregating again. No way to avoid it unless and until the virus is completly eradicated...which will take much more time than is being considered.

Ann Kerr

Because it's so contagious.

Janet Rawlings

It’s too soon!

Brad Livsey

SHEAR GOVERNMENTAL GOOFBALL IGNORANCE!!! We haven't dealt with this killer long enough to make this decision yet. We'll now see a harrowing reflection on just how UGLY this mutant virus WILL GET!!!

Victoria Martin Come'

Too fast, too soon could cause a second and worse spread.

I understand it's possible, but we can't live in fear!

As i typically practice universal precautions every day of the year, and rarely get sick, I will proceed in the same manner. If people are compromised, they should never go out. Never.

Christena

More testing is going to show more results. Our death rate for positive tests is 2% We're pretty good.

Jane

Take precautions. Obey rules. Invent new ways if enjoying life. Life goes on.

の狼バニラ

If we do it safely, I feel like we’ll be okay. For once in my life, i miss school!

Dave Voiles

More and more experts are saying this whole thing is a "nothing burger" as far as flu's go. Children rarely get it. Adults have no problem unless underlying conditions. Move on.

DeBacker Melis

Virus and death is guaranteed in life, you just got to be smart...

Pam W

Not enough to worry about in Rural Oregon.

Sussie Due

I am not going to let fear run my life. I never did from the beginning and I still wont. This virus will be around just like all the other viruses. Its not going to just go away. Best to accept that.

Kara Surface

I'm an essential worker. I do not know of any essential worker in central oregon that have the virus.

Joyce Hamlin-cutler

It will happen, but if reasonable cautions are used it should minor.

Robert Northrup

I do not believe it will end until everyone is exposed or there is a vaccine. It could mutate and become more deadly like the Spanish flu so personally I would rather be infected and get it over with.

Michael Miller

Not too worried as long as we use some sense in opening back up. However the right-wing nitwits who are protesting are not helping matters any.

Already voted!

Trump is a clear danger to Democracy. I don't think MAGA people actually listen to his "speeches"/rambling offensive tirades of many half-truths.. but also easily disproven outright lies. How anyone can support him at this point, is bizarre.

Steven Huillet

I voted for Trump because of his policies. Harris has none, just the same terrible Biden policies.

Michael Bruner

You have no rights to complain unless you vote!

Larry Ewart

A vote for the Democratic Party is a vote for one party rule. I never felt that way until the Biden administration took over and opened the border to allow so many to come across unvetted. I have never understood why it takes 3 to 5 years to get a green card. Makes no sense.

Trump for president save America, do you’re research on Harris!

steven

Do "you're" research?

I dont vote. Its just a way for the government to THINK we have a say. They already have it planned out.

Raising tax’s on businesses will make them increase prices and they will have to layoff people

steven

This type of tax will always be passed on to we consumers. Oregonians already pay an income tax. It's another heavy burden on Oregon consumers that will be passed on to us - the increased costs is nothing but a hidden tax.

Joe Ottlinger

It's a huge tax on everyone. No thanks

Andrew Shooks

This is a sneaky way to get sales tax in place and will add as much as 15% to the consumer's cost for retail purchases.

Steven Huillet

Just another way to ruin Oregon.

David Kline

It's a hand out to the rich who can afford to live here only 200 days out of the year.

Latterdaysaint

Vote no!

steven

And yes. Like Gabe.
