Illinois COVID 19 Today: IL reports 2,149 new cases of coronavirus, 20 IL died as 30 IL counties reach “warning level”

 


Chicago (WLS)-The suburb of Cook County was added to the list of counties in Illinois on Friday to reach the “warning” level for COVID-19 cases.

Coronavirus Testing: Where to Get Tested for COVID-19 in Chicago, Illinois

If no measures are taken to slow the spread of the virus, warning-level counties may face new restrictions. There are currently 30 counties in Illinois at alert level.

The number of COVID-19 is increasing in suburban Cook County. The state has added Cook County to the 29 other counties in the state at the warning level. That is, the county exceeds two or more risk indicators for the spread of the virus.

County health officials believe the surge in incidents stems from a large, private gathering where people failed to wear masks and observe social distances.

“We’re still considering whether we’re going to stay orange,” Rachel Rubin said. “We might recommend further mitigation across Cook County’s suburbs.”

Announcements have come at a difficult time for the county and many schools are back in session. Many school districts have begun remotes over the years, which can slow down the hope of returning to normal soon.

Officials may also consider further restrictions on gyms with fitness classes and will work with the Illinois Restaurant Association to develop new policies. That’s bad news for restaurant owners and customers who want to return to normal.

“Every time they limit our ability to do our business, it obviously has a huge impact on our ability to pay bills,” said Mark Hoffman, along with the à la carte restaurant group.

Health officials said there is one bright spot: hospitalization has not increased despite an increasing number of cases.
