While hospitalizations have remained largely steady in Chicago in recent weeks, it appears that the area is at risk of moving up to a “medium community level” of COVID-19 in the near future, the city’s top doctor says.
Several suburban Chicago communities are seeing increased transmission of COVID-19, but metrics would have to get significantly worse before any mandates or protocol changes would be implemented, health experts tell NBC 5. Lauren Petty has the details.
“For anyone traveling to a county that is medium risk, we really recommend you consider wearing a mask in indoor places, and if it’s high risk, definitely you’ve got to wear a mask in the indoor places,” she said. That adds up to 2.8 new admissions per 100,000 residents per week. Under CDC guidelines, any area that is seeing 10 or more new weekly admissions per 100,000 residents would be at a “medium community level” risk of COVID transmission, meaning that Chicago would be well below that threshold.
