I hear what health officials have been saying and it's definitely worrisome that I could either get it or carry/spread it.

Watching out for myself and family, as not sure most people out there are NOT!

Jodi Dwyer

Everyone should take heed and social distance. Hoping for the best, but preparing for the worst. Many thanks to all essential business for supporting the community in this time of need.

YES! I'm very worried. I don't go anywhere but walking my dogs and don't get close to anyone, but we have to buy groceries, and with more spread, it makes such simple chores that much more risky.

Kelli Pilling

It exists, whether or not we want to believe it

Jon Hall

Because my entire family falls into the danger catagory and fir some reason kate brown deemed fast food "essential" so i have to keep working exposing myself to 100s of peolple a day

No, not so worried.

I really am not that anxious about all this. I feel I'm taking the necessary precautions and will be okay. I think my family will be okay too.

No. Herd immunity is a GOOD thing. Interesting to note that it's the Dem govs that are displaying their authoritarianism in the name of "safety" through all of this, not Pres Trump.

Joyce Hamlin-cutler

They biggest problem is the unreasonable panic that the constant barrage of 24-7 news coverage is causing. Information is important, but I wonder what the news will cover when this is over.

Ben Ehrenstrom

I think it’s smart to take precautions, but I think it unwise to destroy the economy over it. I do believe it is worse than the flu, although it mostly dangerous to those who are already compromised.

Lori Nielsen

Like all things this to will pass

mike stevenson

I'm over 60 so I'm at higher risk. With that I'm more at risk of death by a vehicle crash...I use common sense wash my hands often, keep my distance from people I don't know...lets don't panic

No I have faith in Christ

LisaRae Hilton

I'm not prepping in the normal sense. But I am being aware of what I have and what I need and only going shopping when I need certain items.

I am glad that we were Blue over all on the West coast. Those flyover states have too much say.

I prefer metering to increasing the number of lanes. More than one lane makes roundabouts much more dangerous to navigate, especially with drivers who are not locals and do not understand how roundabouts work. 2 lanes = many more accidents plus 2 lanes need to be a much larger diameter for safety.

You're literally bumper to bumper from the Bill Healy bridge. The people from the Old Mill Never Cease coming.

If it weren’t so maddening, our City counselors would make for a cast in a Monty Python show. They befuddle themselves with ludicrous ideas and foist them onto the taxpayers. Bend is becoming a laughing stock to outsiders and a source of continual angst for the residents.

SUE ABERNATHY

Isn't that why they put the round about in because stop lights were going to cost to much????? Just saying.

sara kreps

doesn't this defeat the purpose of a roundabout? might as well make it a regular intersection with lights.

Dave Krajczynski

If people used the roundabout correctly and actually filled in the gaps and went when there was an opening it would flow just fine. People wait for a bus sized gap before they go.

Jeff Sanders

The people coming from the Old Mill Never Cease coming. Traffic is backed up to Bill Healy bridge everyday. At least in the winter.

Kathy Brown

Make a LARGER round-about!! A stop light will only make it worse!!

Chris Gonzales

A roundabout's primary purpose in traffic management is to improve safety and traffic flow, resulting in less congestion and fewer accidents compared to traditional stoplight intersections. Key words: Flow, less congestion and Stoplights. Now they want to add Stoplights!!! City waste at its Best!

Latterdaysaint

The point of the roundabouts was to get rid of lights

Fletcher Jackson

What's the point of having a light at a roundabout? The point of a roundabout is to get rid of the lights. Widen it and start growing for the people coming here. The way bend builds, everything is obsolete by the time it's done.

Tim Walker

I drive through this around about several times everyday and it is never an issue very rarely. Is it an issue? The reason they put roundabouts in for the first place was to get rid of stop lights and stop signs
