I trust health experts instead of non-health experts. Knox county has weathered the pandemic better than most. Wearing a mask is similar to not drinking and driving. It protects others from you.

I trust the Health Board to make decisions about keeping us safe that meet the needs of Knox Co. citizens. Politics has NO place in these decisions.

You’re doing a great job! And you’re the reason Knoxville has done so much better than Nashville or Memphis !

Knox County Health Department should not be further limited in its power to make decisions or govern. I support the Board of Health.

We shouldn't be relying on individuals uneducated in health or medicine to be directing our public health-related policies, especially during a pandemic. Let's listen to the experts.

Mayor Jacobs needs to tap out and leave the medical decisions to actual medical professionals who have dedicated their lives to healing people. He sees his libertarian agenda as more important than the lives of his constituents.

I can’t believe we have to do this. Stop caving to science deniers, including the county mayor.

Please do not change the mask mandate. It is the only way to slow down the spread of this virus.

Thank you for having the guys to do what's right. I live in Blount county but come to Knox to do my shopping because I feel safer there.

Mayor Jacobs and County Commissioners, please get your politics out of our healthcare and let the Board of Health do their jobs. Our lives depend on it! Thank you Board of Health and KCHD for all your hard work.

I support the Board of Health making decisions about the safest course of action for our community during a health crisis. Their decisions are based on science and community spread data. I feel it is important not to make this virus a political issue which will cause additional division in our community.

Please do not allow this damaging anti-science narrative to increase the COVID deaths of people in Knox County.

Don't let the naysayers get you down, change your focus or deter you from doing what you do best.

Why are we having to defend science? Dr. Buchanan's only concern is the health and welfare of the people of Knoxville.
