    Teacher is ‘walking, talking example of what COVID does’

    PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — In January, just before the vaccine was available, Bridlemile Elementary School teacher Rick Barde got COVID — and battled for his life. Barde spent more than 2 months in the hospital at OHSU. For weeks he was in an induced coma, had a collapsed lung, pneumonia. He was put on the ECMO heart-and-lung machine to survive. And he told KOIN 6 News at one point he just wanted it to be over. Read more

    or the millions who recovered are an example? I just tested positive, I smoke two packs a day and eat like a 1950s American, I've had hangovers that were worse.

    Exhausted and demoralized fighting COVID-19 in Portland ICU: ‘We just feel helpless’

    They lie still and silent in medically induced comas. They’ve been “proned,” moved onto their stomachs, to help their damaged lungs function. Some have been here at Providence Portland Medical Center for months. They are the sickest COVID-19 victims at the Northeast Portland hospital. Most are alive only because they’re... Read more

    The mandates don’t apply to anyone except us “peons”! Good example is Obama and his 600+ birthday bash and Wheeler’s staff send off party and several other government or celebrity events! Add to this that our 💩governor wants to bring in Afghan refugees and your, not my president, won’t close the borders! But we peons have to take vaccines that so far appear not 100% affective, lose jobs if we don’t comply and now won’t receive unemployment benefits if fired for not complying! We have nurses and doctors unwilling to take these vaccinations and are leaving jobs here and leaving the state! When all these 💩government officials start practicing what they preach, celebrities quit accepting payments for endorsing vaccines then off camera party and do exactly the opposite of what they just got paid to endorse and our loser, so called president closes the borders and our governor quits opening the doors to refugees and illegals, maybe we’ll talk about taking the vaccinations! Until then shut

    Follow the mandates and hopefully in a month we will be past this. On another note, I am sick and tired of the media being allowed into the ER's and ICU units and taking pics and vids. Where are patient HIPAA rights? Reporters can do this but we can't even get copies of medical records that we are entitled to by law?
