Governor Talks Coronavirus Response

The state is taking additional steps to identify anyone in Illinois sick with Coronavirus and help stop and spread of the disease.

 

Today the Governor, the Mayor of Chicago and statewide health officials outlined a coordinated effort to combat it. By the first week of March, the state will be able to test for the virus in three locations in Illinois. But as testing ramps up Pritzker says the best thing to do is what you’d do when trying to avoid a cold or flu.

 

 

Illinois was the first state to be able to test for the virus and voluntary testing will begin at select hospitals around the state in order to track possible infections.
