Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot announced Thursday that the city is issuing an emergency travel order directing all residents and travelers entering Chicago from states experiencing an uptick in coronavirus cases to quarantine for 14 days in an effort to slow the spread of the virus.

The order, issued by Chicago Department of Public Health Commissioner Allison Arwady, is set to go into effect next Monday. As of Thursday, the states included in the order were Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Nevada, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Utah.

A state will be designated under the order “if it has a case rate greater than 15 new COVID-19 cases per 100,000 resident population, per day.” The rate will be determined “over a 7-day rolling average,” according to the order.

  1. Her Honor may want to consider changing her name to Light-Head.

    There are areas in Chicago that are extremely dangerous to ones life, regardless of PPE.

  2. In other news, 20 blacks were shot by other blacks in a show of solidarity with the Black lives matter movement.

  3. Of course, all the New Yorkers and New Jerseyans who could not manage to control themselves during the winter and Pesach and came to Florida bearing the gift of Corona with them are certainly not in the Covidiot group. They are just good old fashioned justifiers who do what they want, when they want and get their local doctors to ratify their behaviors so they can.
