Sydney Murphy, a third grade teacher at Silver Rail Elementary in Bend,
receives her first dose of the COVID-19 vaccination from volunteer Val
Leonardo, an RN and nursing coordinator at the Shepherd’s House in
Bend, during a vaccination clinic Jan. 22 at the Deschutes County Fair &
Expo Center in Redmond.
Vaccine
Continued from A1
Deschutes County educators
began receiving vaccinations
on Jan. 13 — first with a small
group of school staff such as
Kansky who work with at-risk
groups, then all school staff
eight days later.
Since then, about 3,500
school staff members in De-
schutes County have received
their first vaccine dose as of
Monday, according to Juli-
anne Repman, Bend-La Pine
Schools’ director of safety and
communications and a local
organizer for the school staff
vaccination effort.
Bend-La Pine or Redmond
school districts don’t have data
on how many staffers took the
vaccine, the districts’ respective
spokespeople said.
A survey in mid-January
from the Bend-La Pine teach-
ers’ union found that 88.5% of
those who responded planned
to get vaccinated, Barclay said.
And most of those who said
no or were unsure did so for
personal medical reasons, such
as a pregnancy, rather than be-
lieving in anti-vaccine ideolo-
gies, she said.
Crook County held a one-
day mass vaccination event
for educators on Jan. 25, when
nearly 300 school staffers were
vaccinated by county health
and Mosaic Medical staff, ac-
cording to representatives
from both organizations. Vicky
Ryan, spokesperson for Crook
County Health Department,
said less than 5% of school staff
in the county refused a vac-
cine.
Crook County had to start
its vaccinations later than De-
schutes due to a lack of supply,
Ryan said.
“We’ve been only allocated
100 doses a week, and there
was one week we didn’t get
any,” she said. “We’re not get-
ting enough at any one time.”
In Jefferson County, where
the population is more spread
out, 270 educators received
vaccines in different locations
on different days. The vast ma-
jority of school staff members
received their vaccines last
week, mainly in Madras med-
ical locations along with the
health center in Warm Springs,
said Tami Kepa’a, spokesper-
son for Jefferson County Pub-
lic Health.
Neither Ken Parshall —
superintendent of Jefferson
County School District — nor
Kepa’a knew what percentage
of Jefferson County School
District teachers opted to take
the vaccine.
Parshall believes the major-
ity of his staff were vaccinated,
and he thinks this will make
educators, families and stu-
dents feel more comfortable
when they begin returning to
in-person classes on Wednes-
day.
“This step just makes (re-
opening schools) feel a lot bet-
ter for everyone involved,” he
said.

The system has many
lawmakers complaining
that watching someone tes-
tify about their experiences
during COVID-19 is less
compelling than in person.
But champions of the dis-
tace system say it brings in
a larger and more diverse
group of voices compared to
having to travel all the way
to Salem to be given five
minutes before a commit-
tee that’s already heard two
dozen five-minute presen-
tations.
But at some point the bills
will have made their way
through committees and
those that are approved will
head to the floor of each
Death
Continued from A1
Jones, 52, was a Red-
mond resident who had no
known connections to Jef-
ferson County. He remains
a subject of speculation to
police.
“He was a hard individ-
ual to get background on,”
Adkins said. “He had no
ties up to Jefferson County
that we’re aware of. Why
was he up here? How did he
hook up with the suspects?
We had a lot questions.”
In the early morning of
Aug. 20, a truck driver called
911 to report a person’s body
on the side of NW Dan-
ube Drive about 7 miles
northwest of Madras. The
man, Jones, was about 40
feet from U.S. Highway 26,
though obscured from view
by a sharp turn in the road.
It was clear to investi-
gators Jones had walked a
short distance and leaned
against a guardrail before
succumbing to his injuries,
Adkins said.
“You can tell where he fell
against the guardrail and
then fell on the ground,”
Adkins said.
It’s not thought Jones was
at the location for very long,
given average traffic volume
on Danube Drive and how
prominent the body was.

chamber for a vote. Then the
bills go to the other chamber
and the committee process be-
gins anew. That means halfway
through and at the end, for a bill
to pass, legislators will have to
return en masse to the Capitol.
Asked how many times law-
makers will have to come to Sa-
lem during the session, House
Speaker Tina Kotek, D-Port-
land, said “I honestly don’t
know.”
Legislation can make it
through committee until dead-
lines can’t be stretched any fur-
ther. “We can let the bills pile up
until April,” Kotek said, ventur-
ing a guess.
There is hope among law-
makers that by spring, the virus
infection rate will have con-
tinued on its downward path,
more people will be vaccinated
and gathering under the Capi-
tol’s gray granite dome on Court
Street might be less dangerous.
Many would like to see at
least a limited reopening of the
Capitol for public hearings.
But for now, each trip to Salem
carries with it some risk. Un-
like states such as Colorado, so
far Oregon legislators have not
been given a preference in pri-
ority for early vaccination.
The fallout of the COVID-19
crisis has required the House
and Senate to convene in three
short special sessions in June,
August and December.
With strict masking and
social distancing (honored
by all but a few Republicans),
there have been no reported
COVID-19 infections among
those of the 60 House and 30
Senate members who attended
On Friday, a Jefferson
County judge signed an arrest
warrant for Winishut, Robin-
son and Belgard, and they were
arrested in Warm Springs the
next day and interviewed by
police. It’s not thought the trio
was on the run from the law or
hiding out when they were ar-
rested, Adkins said.
Two of the three, Winishut
and Belgard, have been as-
signed public defenders. Calls

the special sessions. Like many
states, Oregon’s lawmakers skew
toward the older end of the age
spectrum, with more than a few
in their 60s and 70s.
Despite it all, Oregon is one
of only six states where no
member of the Legislature has
been infected.
Nationwide, 161 state law-
makers have been infected and
seven have died, most recently

Edwards, 66, on Nov. 2. U.S.
Rep Luke Letlow, R-La., 41, be-

gress to die from COVID-19 on
Dec. 29.
So far, 21 infections have
been reported in legislatures in
January, tying the one-month
record, according to the politi-
cal website Ballotpedia.
