You're not stopping COVID because no government on earth has been able to yet.

State Senator Chapin Rose believes we should be working together on how we approach moving forward because the coronavirus is here and stopping the spread is not going to happen. The Mahomet Republican says we need to figure how we're going to coincide with it until a vaccine or suitable treatment is developed.

The Senator encourages Illinoisans and says we will get through this. He says we need to protect the elderly but healthy people need to get back to work.

Sen. Rose agrees with a lot of things in the Governor's 'Reopen Illinois Plan' but hopes there will be some adjustments. We'll hear more from the Senator tomorrow on Regional Radio News.
