Why can't they just shut down schools and extend it into summer vacation. That sucks, but not as much as kids potentially getting a disease

Id also recommend taking kids out of school if the flu was running this rampant.

about 100 miles from portland. though not in any way concerned. start seeing more hot spots within oregon (more than lake oswego) might become a bit more worried.

our town isn't having any restrictions plus bookings in hotels is normal even for spring break.
people rely on those jobs to make ends meet (reliant on tourists).

What happens in July, after the plague has burned out and there's four more months of unpaid water bills?

Yeah im in southern Oregon and I'm not too worried either, however, my 62 year old Mother-in-law (not in great health) lives with my wife, 3 kids and I so I have a slight concern for her.

@Lost_All_Senses

Because most schools have free lunch, breakfast and snacks. Too many kids at my school have that as their only food they get all day
