Public Health trumps any one person’s personal liberty. This is a war we must have compliance with. Otherwise, lockdowns are again inevitable!

Really? Then we should ban use of alcohol for many people are killed by drunk drivers, we should ban big cars that are more likely to kill someone, we should ban stairs as 100s or 1000s die every year on stairs. No, there are limits on stripping liberties on the basis of Public Health.

It amazes me that so many people are so ignorant and selfish in their refusal to get vaccinated. How much more evidence does someone need to see that the vaccine will save their life. If you are not vaccinated and you get Covid, you should have to pay your own medical expenses.

Did you have the same opinion of those with AIDS? What about obese people?

Funny cuz all the vaccinated people are passing Covid around. And I’m not getting it. I refuse. Nobody knows what problems it’s going to cause 5 years from now.

this virus is deadly, spreads extremely fast and continues to mutate. in order to slow this process and keep our children safe getting the vaccine is essential .

We have been getting vaccinated since the first three months of being born. Maybe if the medical community would stop treating the unvacinated. After all it's free choice.

They are being forced though coercion. They are being threatened with their jobs. That is coercion.

It is not unconstitutional. No one is being forced to be vaccinated, but the vaccination has become a condition of certain types of employment. I had to be fingerprinted and have a negative TB test in order to receive my teaching credential. I was not forced to get the credential. It was my choice.

Coercion is against the law. Vaccination under threat of losing livelihood….no one should have to be coerced into receiving it.

Your government should not be able to tell your employer what they must require medically to employ you. Total over reach.

Such mandates violate personal conscience rights and religious rights, especially when considering that the "vaccines" are experimental, unproven, novel gene therapies and have connections to aborted children. Natural immunity studies show natural immunity is 6.7X more effective than "vaccines.

It's for the people by the people. The majority of the people want their right to choose for themselves. Going against that is against the united states constitution.

It's not okay to force it on someone. I have natural immunity from having covid, have been around people that have it currently including some that have gotten the shot and I have not gotten sick therefore I won't spread anything. So why force something that isn't needed on some people.

There is no need for this. Besides according to all the research the vaccine only helps reduce syptoms, it makes not difference in the spread of it, so it should totally be an individuals choice.

It's not a vaccine. there is no vaccine for a virus. Never will be. You cannot create a vaccine for an ever changing vaccine. They have been trying for years with the seasonal Flu. All they could create was a temporary flu shot. The mRNA is not a vaccine.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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
