Knox Public Health has posted a notice on vaccine availability that will be updated regularly as conditions change. Currently, the Health Department is accepting vaccine requests from the Phase 1b group: people over age 65 and those with severe congenital-, developmental- or early-onset medical disorders. The Health Department asks those who qualify as Phase 1b to send an email to info@knoxhealth.com indicating name, age and phone number; unless they have done so already. This week the focus will be on those age 80 and over.
