"Some of the deaths were the result of people not having access to fans or air conditioning."

Who wouldn't have access to these items? Did the stores run out of product?

Bring prepared is an individual responsibility, not the governments.

Sounds like the people who wouldn't evacuate New Orleans for hurricane Katrina...then, blamed everyone else for their stupidity.

Here in Boise, our HVAC guy said there are no AC units in the area.

Is this like covid where they don’t report underlying conditions? It was an awful lot hotter in Vietnam than what I see reported.

That’s terrible Oregon has a lot of good people from libertarian hippies in Bryant and Cave junction to ranchers in the eastern slopes

I love those people

People USED to go to the movies sometimes just to sit in an airconditioned building for several hours.

But I guess with the movies today that would be torture.

Kind of like when the passenger walked out of the in-flight movie one time.

Soak yourself in the tub. Evaporation is as cheap and easy a way to cool off as there is

“Oregon Death Toll Rises To 107 After Record-Breaking Heat Wave”

Purely coincidental. Because of course they all actually died of COVID-19.

Morons. Go swimming all day

Fill a bathtub with cold water

Take cold showers

Drink ice cold beverages

Life existed a long long long time before air conditioning , children!!!

prioritizing seniors, people with disabilities and pregnant women

Whoa, back the turnip truck up!! Why in the world weren't POCs and Trannies and antifa prioritized #1? Something is seriously wrong in Oregon.

“The extreme heat continued into the July Fourth weekend. The high in Portland on Thursday was about 79 degree.”

Since WHEN has “79 degree” been considered hot? There were 3 days when it was “Vegas like” here, but since then, it’s been cool, and as I type this, I have the window open.

Dumb to die because you have not any a/c. $150 to $300
Use it when you need it. I knew people who love hot weather and would not use a/c. Not me. I will use a/c 24/7

All types to buy.

There have been volcanic eruptions in the Cascades that likely killed more indigenous people than that. But they happened centuries ago, so they don't count [/S].

Probably burned down by libtards.

Even if I grant the premise that the AC units were all sold out, and my car didn't have working AC, there are a wealth of options. The movie theatre is air conditioned, so is the supermarket, so is the public library, so is a McDonald's with $1 refillable drinks. I assume at night time the temperature is no longer 107. Do folks in Oregon have basements? I miss them here in Phoenix, but they are ideal in extreme heat with no AC.
