Opponents of the bill say health officials are the most qualified to make decisions about health orders, free of the political influence that affects elected officials.

The HEALTH Officials oversee HEALTH, If the gov doesn't trust the health officials then why delegate the task of protecting the public from illness to the HEALTH officials? Maybe some people just don't work well with others.

The Governor left the decision to local officials instead of making statewide mandates. It is not okay to now second guess what local officials decided and tell them they can't do what he originally told them they have to do. You can't have it both ways.

I feel the regulations were appropriate to control the onslaught of Covid-19.

Short term temporary situation that most of us have been through more times than we care to remember. At least we do not have shortages and lines, like we did in the 1970's.
