Episode 172: The Bad Flu
News and More: Canby School District voters have passed a 20-year, $75 million bond measure to repair and improve schools, increase security and upgrade technology. Clackamas County has applied for Phase 1 reopening. An employee at the Safeway grocery store in Molalla has tested positive for Covid-19.
Canby Conversation: Canby has seen 29 confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus, according to the Oregon Health Authority. One of them was Katerina Wert, who shares her experience today. Covid-19 was like a bad case of the flu, she said, which also gave her pneumonia: Definitely something to take seriously, but not something to be afraid of.
After the Break: Today, Canby's modern pump system generates more than 8 million gallons of water per day — and more than 20 million complaints (during the summer months anyway). But, how did it come to be? A look back at the town's waterworks — and the "Father of Irrigation" we have to thank for it, on Canby Then.
