Glendale Heights continues to have a high number of positive tests of COVID-19, and we are asking the community to do their best to help slow the spread. Please remember the 3-W's in helping combat COVID-19 in the Glendale Heights community: Wear a mask, Wash your hands, Watch your distance. The Governor, along with health experts in the field, continue to make difficult decisions to keep Illinoisans safe, including mandates of the closing of indoor dining at local establishments, events having a capacity of 25 people, and more. Additionally, public health officials continue to urge Illinoisans to stay home as much as possible and avoid social settings that could spread COVID-19.
Those experiencing symptoms should call a health care provider who will help arrange medical treatment without putting others at risk of exposure or you can be tested at a number of free testing sites located across the Chicagoland area (see below for testing sites).
The Illinois Department of Public Health has a statewide COVID-19 hotline and website to answer any questions from the public or to report a suspected case: call 800.889.3931 or visit www.dph.illinois.gov.

On August 17, IDPH announced the creation of a travel map (available via this link) to help inform travelers of potential risks with traveling during the pandemic. The map shows which states are currently seeing a higher rate of spread and may pose additional risks to Illinois residents if they travel to those states. States and countries are marked with higher risk if they are seeing a COVID-19 daily case rate of at least 15 cases per 100,000 people. IDPH's guidance regarding travel is available via this link.
The following documents are the Declarations of Emergency, the Declarations of Disaster, and Executive Orders signed by Mayor Jackson. Mayor Jackson and the Village Board are here for you and your families, and will do everything in their power to ensure our community is safe.

During a special call meeting Tuesday, the DuPage County Board approved $2.5 million in additional CARES Act funds to help bars and restaurants that are financially struggling due to the mitigation measures ordered by the State of Illinois.
On Oct. 23, as part of the State's COVID-19 mitigation strategy, Governor J.B. Pritzker announced restrictions on bars and restaurants in Region 8, which includes DuPage County. The order banned indoor dining and bar services and restricted the capacity allowed for indoor events and gatherings. Further restrictions put in place on Nov. 11 reduced seating capacity at outdoor tables from 10 to six people.
"We understand the severity and the danger associated with this virus, but we also understand the negative economic impacts these orders will have on our businesses. We are dedicating millions to provide relief to local businesses while we continue to fight the spread of COVID-19 in our communities," said DuPage County Chairman Dan Cronin.
The $2.5 million will be disbursed through the Reinvest DuPage program. Launched by the County in May, the Reinvest DuPage program has provided $21 million in funds for small businesses to help sustain the local economy. Interested businesses may apply for assistance beginning Wednesday morning at the Choose DuPage online portal.
Eligible establishments must be located within the geographic boundaries of DuPage County, derive more than 50 percent of their revenue from the sale of food or liquor, and demonstrate an annual revenue of less than $4 million. The maximum amount any applicant may receive is $15,000. Restaurants and bars must also be in compliance with the Governor's executive orders to be eligible to receive funding.
Choose DuPage will continue to administer the program, and the application portal will open at 8:00 am Wednesday, Nov. 18. For more information about the Reinvest DuPage program or information about how to apply, please contact Choose DuPage at 630.955.2090 or visit www.choosedupage.com.

In response to the exponential spread of COVID-19 cases and the increased need for testing, the DuPage County Health Department is announcing the addition of a second community-based drive-thru testing site to provide additional testing resources in DuPage County.
The additional COVID-19 testing site will be located at the Odeum Expo Center (1033 N Villa Avenue) in Villa Park, Illinois, and will open on Monday, Nov. 23. The week of Thanksgiving the site will be operational Monday, Nov. 23 through Wednesday, Nov. 25 from 10am to 6 pm, or until the daily test capacity of 600 tests is completed each day. The week of Nov. 29, the site will operate from Sunday, Nov. 29 through Friday, Dec. 4 with the same hours and test capacity.
Anyone can be tested, and no appointment, doctor referral, or insurance is required. Visitors are encouraged to pre-register at testdirectly.com/dupage, but pre-registration does not guarantee testing or a place in line for that day.

Dr. Ngozi Ezike, the Director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, said today that we should be concerned about a second wave of COVID-19 and if that second wave hits along within flu season, it may be even more difficult. For that reason, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) may be more important than ever if we hit the second wave later this year. We've been on the front lines making sure that PPE reaches are healthcare workers and first responders, and we'll be there for the second wave also.
The need for PPE in the future is just another reason to support our not for profit organization. Please keep "DuPage Health Matters" our 501(c)(3) organization, in mind during Giving Days DuPage, which continues through May 14th. The link to our page is HERE. There are many fine organizations participating in the first annual event and we're proud to be advocating for public health at this historic time.
The Governor's Executive Order known as the "Stay at Home Order" was instituted in order to bend the curve to allow hospitals to build greater capacity and not be overrun by COVID-19 patients in need of ICU beds and ventilators. As reported previously, Illinois as a whole, and the hospital region serving DuPage specifically, has not been overrun by patients with extreme conditions due to the virus. As of yesterday, Illinois hospitals reported 1,226 patients are currently in ICU beds. 30% of the ICU rooms are available. Likewise, 781 ventilators are being used by COVID 19 patients and 59% of the ventilators statewide are available.
Region 8 is wherein the DuPage hospital system is located. As you can see by the graph, our hospitals remain well below capacity for ICU bed use and ventilator use.
As for the case counts today, the DuPage County Health Department confirmed COVID-19 cases have increased to 1,861 cases compared to 1,759 yesterday. 99 deaths have occurred, as of today, compared to 94 DuPage residents reported as of yesterday. DuPage statistics indicate 68% of our deaths up from 63.8% yesterday, or 64 of our 99 deaths, from COVID-19 have been nursing home deaths. That number is especially troubling since the 70 and above age group (both in long-term care facilities and the community) represents only about 22% of DuPage confirmed cases. The 5 additional DuPage deaths from COVID 19 since yesterday are as follows:
DuPage County Health Department (DCHD) announces five additional deaths of persons with COVID-19 infection reported since yesterday:
Illinois has made the nursing home deaths available online and you can search by county to find those cases and deaths. This is the link for that page.
The Illinois Department of Public Health announced today that there are 1,551 new cases compared to 1,151 new cases yesterday and 1,197 new cases the day before. The total confirmed cases in Illinois now total 33,059 compared to 31,508 yesterday. The state announced an additional 119 deaths compared to 59 deaths yesterday and 33 deaths the day before. The death total in Illinois is now 1,468 compared to 1,349 yesterday and 1,290 the day before. Illinois has now performed 154,997 tests compared to 148,358 tests yesterday and 143,318 tests the day before.
The specific number of cases and deaths in surrounding counties, as of today, are as follows:
International statistics from the World Health Organization and CDC provide the following breakdown of cases from earlier today:
Globally, there are 1,687,744 active cases compared to 1,634,802 active cases yesterday and 1,597,609 active cases the day before. The active cases are divided between 'mild condition' cases and 'serious or critical condition' cases. Active mild cases continue to be 97% of the cases.
The United States shows slightly more "mild" condition cases compared to global statistics that differentiate between mild and serious case percentages. The trend has continued from early this week.
At times, the daily numbers regarding positive tests and deaths may make everyone wonder if everyone is getting this virus and are the majority of cases having life threatening outcomes. Dr. Ezike, the Director of the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH), has been periodically updating us on positive outcomes at the state level. Each time, Dr. Ezike reminds us that for most people that contract this virus, the symptoms are minor. Similarly, numbers below indicate that 98% of the cases nationally and 97% internationally are considered "mild" and don't require hospitalization.
IDPH surveys COVID-19 patients and the results indicate, as Dr. Ezike has preached, most people who contract the virus will recover quickly and completely. Many people who have the virus have minor or no symptoms and are not even tested so they aren't even part of the cohort that makes up some of the statistics that are provided on a daily basis. Even the reported recovery numbers statewide, according to the IDPH surveys, find that almost 60 percent of the people recover within 2 weeks and 77 percent are recovered fully within four weeks. In addition, nationally, the percentage of cases that are 'critical' or 'serious' dropped again and now represents less than 2 percent of the cases. Those are encouraging statistics and remind us that we should continue to do our part. People with underlying conditions, like obesity, may have more difficulty in the recovery process.
The DuPage County Health Department's health promotions team prepared a video that let's everyone know that they can do their part in preventing the spread of this virus. You may share this link with all of your contacts. The health promotions team can produce public service announcements like this on many programs and initiatives. In order to reach people about important subjects like preventing the spread of viruses and eliminating obesity we need support for our not for profit organization, "DuPage Health Matters", which is accepting donations of all amounts during Giving Days DuPage. The link to our page is HERE.
As you may already have heard, the Governor indicated today that he would be extending his Executive Order, effective May 1st, for another 30 days, with some modifications.
Today, the DuPage County Health Department confirmed COVID-19 cases have increased by 124 cases to a total of 2,075 cases. An addition, 12 deaths are reported resulting in a total of 118 deaths in DuPage County. 84 of the 118 deaths, or 71% of DuPage deaths from COVID-19, have been nursing home deaths. The statistic reinforces Dr. Ezike's comments today in which she once again noted that the virus is attacking the elderly and those with underlying conditions, such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and lung disease.
The 12 additional DuPage deaths from COVID-19 since yesterday are as follows:
Illinois has made the nursing home death numbers available online and you can search by county to find those cases and deaths. This is the link for that page. A recent story in the Elmhurst Patch has cast doubts on case numbers released by IDPH. A nursing home complained that the numbers were incorrect and IDPH admitted that the number of cases includes "confirmed cases" and people with similar symptoms but not confirmed positive tests.
The Illinois Department of Public Health announced today that there are 1,826 new cases and 123 deaths compared to 2,049 new cases and 98 deaths yesterday. The total confirmed cases in Illinois now total 36,934 compared to 35,108 yesterday. The death total in Illinois is now 1,688 compared to 1,565 yesterday. Illinois has now performed 173,316 tests compared to 164,346 tests yesterday.
The specific number of cases and deaths in surrounding counties, as of today, are as follows:
As you can see by the above numbers, DuPage is doing very well compared to other counties based on a per capita basis. Additional good news on a statewide basis is a report today from the state is that hospitalizations both in the ICU units and with the use of ventilators is flat and not increasing as once feared.
International statistics from the World Health Organization and CDC provide the following breakdown of cases from earlier today:
Globally, there are 1,769,456 active cases compared to 1,711,002 active cases yesterday. The active cases are divided between 'mild condition' cases and 'serious or critical condition' cases. Active mild cases continue to be 97% of the cases.
The United States shows slightly more "mild" condition cases compared to global statistics that differentiate between mild and serious case percentages. The trend has continued from early this week.
Governor Pritzker's announcement this past Thursday that he intends to extend his Executive "Stay at Home" Order has received mixed reactions. Three specific negative reactions were (1) One downstate county sheriff vowing that he will not enforce the order stating that it is unconstitutional; (2) A downstate municipality is contemplating allowing businesses to reopen in defiance of the order; and (3) A lawsuit was filed downstate challenging the Governor's right to extend the order past the 30 days allowed by statute. (I have attached a copy of the complaint and brief).
Governor Pritzker has responded to questions on those threats from the media arguing that the state is in a pandemic and there will be a "new normal".
The actions in opposition to the Governor's order are similar to actions in other states. No matter how those issues are resolved, the new normal will require our local health department to increase our response to health emergencies.
In order to continue to protect the public health, in emergencies and in non-emergency situations, we need support for our not for profit organization,"DuPage Health Matters", which is accepting donations of all amounts during Giving Days DuPage. The link to our page is HERE. Please share this information with your constituents because public health has never been more important as we try to reach more people, in a continuing effort to make DuPage the healthiest county in the country.

We now have a total of 2,350 cases and 127 deaths. 93 of the 127 deaths, or 73.2% of DuPage deaths from COVID-19, have been nursing home deaths.
The additional DuPage deaths from COVID-19 since yesterday are as follows:
Illinois shared good news that hospitalizations, the utilization of ICU beds and ventilators all remain flat and are not threatening hospital capacity as was feared when the stay at home order was instituted here and elsewhere.
The Illinois Department of Public Health announced today that there are 2,119 new cases and 80 deaths during the last 24 hours compared to 2,724 new cases and 108 deaths yesterday. The total confirmed cases in Illinois is 41,777. The death total in Illinois is now 1,874. Illinois has now performed 201,617 tests. Based on the forgoing tests, 20 percent of the people have tested positive since tests became available.

The United States shows a higher percentage of "mild" condition cases than the world, but both groups have proven the discussion point by our State Public Health Director, Dr. Ezike, who has continuously noted that most people will have mild or no symptoms.
Today, the DuPage County Health Department confirmed COVID-19 cases have increased by 124 cases compared to 151 cases yesterday. In addition, we had two deaths compared to 7 deaths yesterday. We now have a total of 2447 cass and 131 deaths. 95 of the 131 deaths, or 72.5% of DuPage deaths from COVID-19, have been nursing home deaths.
The additional DuPage deaths from COVID-19 since yesterday are as follows:
Statewide, 1,267 COVID patients are occupying 3,631 staffed ICU beds and 772 of those patients are on ventilators. The McCormick Place beds are being rolled back because the state does not foresee the need for additional beds.
The Illinois Department of Public Health announced today that there are 2,126 new cases and 59 deaths compared to 2,119 new cases and 80 deaths yesterday. The total confirmed cases in Illinois is 41,777. The death total in Illinois is now 1,933. Illinois has now performed 214,952 tests.

We now have a total of 2,625 cases and 135 deaths. 97 of the 135 deaths, or 71.8% of DuPage deaths from COVID-19, have been nursing home deaths.
The additional DuPage deaths from COVID-19 since yesterday are as follows:
DuPage hospitalization statistics, as shown below, based on surveys of confirmed cases show that 6.6% of COVID-19 patients were in the ICU and 21.1% were hospitalized but not in ICU rooms.
In Region 8, which is our hospital region for the state, there are 102 available ICU beds out of 500 such beds. Likewise, the region has 218 available ventilators out of 311.
The Governor announced today that statewide the use of ICU beds, over the month have decreased, in part because of the hospitals surging to increase the number of beds.
Similarly, the use of ventilators, in part because hospitals are treating some patients without ventilators due to the negative outcomes, has trended in a positive manner.
Those statistics are positive signs as we continue the social distancing guidelines and the "stay at home" order. However, the Illinois Department of Public Health announced today that there are 1,980 new cases and 50 deaths compared to 2,126 new cases and 59 deaths yesterday. The total confirmed cases in Illinois is 45,883. The death total in Illinois is now 1,983. Illinois has now performed 227,628 tests, including 12,678 in the last 24-hour period.

LOWER ACTIVE MILD CASES GIVES HOPE TO THOSE WORLDWIDE THAT BELIEVE WE ARE NEARING THE END:
The United States shows a higher percentage of "mild" condition cases than the world, which has been the case for a long time.
(The higher percentage of mild cases in the USA is good news)
Some people have asked for periodic COVID-19 case numbers based on race. I've included two graphs regarding DuPage COVID-19 cases. The first bar graph shows that across all groups, the case rate is higher among African American DuPage County residents compared to white and Asian residents. The African American community is represented by the orange bars in the various age groups. This phenomenon is present in all age groups.
Likewise, the case rate is higher among Hispanic DuPage County residents when compared to non-Hispanic residents. The blue bar below represents the Hispanic population, which has a higher case count that non-Hispanics or all DuPage residents. According to the US Census Bureau, only 14.5 percent of our residents are Hispanic and 5.3% are African American.
We've seen similar racial disparity numbers at the state level, with positive case numbers for Hispanics and African Americans going well beyond the percentage of the population. Often, the DuPage County Health Department finds itself serving a disproportionate share of minority patients in our clinics for public health services. In order to meet those increased needs, without tax increases, we have developed a not for profit organization. "DuPage Health Matters", our new 501(c)(3) organization is accepting donations of all amounts during Giving Days DuPage. The link to our page is HERE. Please share this information with your constituents because public health has never been more important as we try to reach more people, in a continuing effort to make DuPage the healthiest county in the country.
The State of Illinois reports similar numbers regarding the cases by race as of today.
Today, the DuPage County Health Department confirmed COVID-19 cases have increased by 114 cases compared to 178 cases yesterday and compared to 124 cases the day before.

National Infant Immunization Week is a yearly observance highlighting the importance of protecting children two years and younger from vaccine preventable diseases. The observation began April 25th and ends Saturday May 2. The New York Times reported that data on vaccination rates across the country have dropped coinciding with the COVID-19 pandemic due to a fear of being exposed to the coronavirus, which could lead to outbreaks of vaccine preventable diseases.
The DuPage County Health Department is on the front line fighting the coronavirus but also provides vaccinations and other important public health services that are being impacted by COVID-19. Please be advised "DuPage Health Matters", our new 501(c)(3) organization, is accepting donations of all amounts during Giving Days DuPage. The link to our page is HERE.

Hospitalization rates are slightly higher today statewide with 1290 ICU beds out of 3,589 occupied as of midnight last night. Of those patients, 777 were on ventilators, leaving 3,007 ventilators available for use.
As I've noted before, DuPage hospitals are located in Region 8, where 73 of the 500 ICU beds are available. Likewise, 210 of the 311 ventilators are available.
International statistics from the World Health Organization and CDC provide the following breakdown of cases from earlier today:

Worldwide mild condition cases: 1,899,820 compared to 1,862,648 yesterday.
Serious or Critical Condition cases: 56,113 compared to 56,427 cases yesterday and compared to 57,562 the day before.(Hopefully, this is a downward trend, for critical cases, that continues)
The United States shows a higher percentage of "mild" condition cases than the world, which has been a fact almost throughout the entire pandemic.
US Active cases: 819,251 compared to 806,690 yesterday.
The most vulnerable population in society is those that suffer from mental illness and the DuPage County Health Department has been proudly serving this population through our behavioral health services unit, which includes services through community partnerships, residential crisis, our 24/7 crisis unit, forensic behavioral health, and client services for adults, teens and children. Providing those services has always been financially difficult even in a community like DuPage County. COVID-19 has stretched those dollars and made it more difficult to provide the level of services that are necessary.
With the development of "DuPage Health Matters", our new 501(c)(3) organization, we can help those that need behavioral health services and make DuPage a better place. The not for profit organization is accepting donations of all amounts during Giving Days DuPage. The link to our page is HERE. These donations allow us to maximize the number of people who receive mental health services.

CDC released COVID-19 hospitalization information based on the previous week. Some of the takeaways from that report include the medical factors affecting the likelihood of hospitalization by age, the most common underlying conditions and a breakdown of patients by race.
The most common underlying conditions for hospitalized patients were hypertension, obesity, and metabolic disease. 57% of the patients had hypertension. 50% were considered obese and 41.1% had metabolic diseases. Some patients had more than one condition. As we move forward, those conditions are public health concerns where improvements in lifestyle and diet can be lifesaving.

Governor Jay Pritzker's five-phase plan, that he is calling Restore Illinois, divides the State of Illinois into 4 regions, including our region, the Northeastern Region. DuPage County is included with Cook, Lake, Will, McHenry, Kendall, Grundy, Kankakee, and Kane Counties. The big question being asked is how do we move to the next phase. We are currently in phase 2.
The determination of moving from Phase 2 to Phase 3 will be driven by the COVID-19 positivity rate in each region and measures of maintaining regional hospital surge capacity. This data will be tracked from the time a region enters Phase 2, onward.
The chart below shows the admissions, positivity, and the availability of medical beds, ICU beds and ventilators for the Northeastern Region. These are the metrics that we will be looking at to move to phase 3. All of the information is from IDPH and is not up to today's date, unfortunately, but it does provide valuable information.
GivingTuesdayNow was not a big success for DuPage Health Matters. Today, we are struggling at about $5,000 less than our goal. People have a lot of wonderful organizations to donate to but supporting public health at a time when we see the destruction of our way of life, is imperative. We have 8 days to raise $5,000. If everyone gives $10, $25, $75 or whatever amount they can afford, we will raise the additional funds, which will come in handy as we fight COVID-19. Please share this information and urge people to join us in the last 8 days of Giving Days DuPage. Click HERE to donate and please share on social media to all of your contacts. Thank you for your generosity, assistance, and support at this difficult time.

The Governor's "Restore Illinois" plan, has the entire state in phase 2 and many people pushing to move into phase 3. We will continue to look at the statistics noted by the Governor and update you as the State of Illinois provides the information in order to provide you a peak at the timetable for the reopening of businesses and many activities.
Below, we have graphics from the state that show the hospital admissions, positivity rate, hospital bed availability, ICU room availability and ventilator use. The statistics below are for the entire Northeastern region and are the indicators for moving to the next phase.
The whole area needs a 20 percent positivity rate over a 14-day period. On May 7th, which is the most recent stat we have, the rate was 21.79 percent.
On the bright side, hospital daily admissions did decrease from May 1st to May 5th from 307 to 279. The numbers below also show 18 percent of the hospital beds, 19 percent of ICU beds and 64 percent of ventilators are available. All those numbers are within the numbers prescribed by the Governor's plan for moving to phase 3.
The DuPage County Health Department confirmed COVID-19 cases have increased by 123 cases compared to 153 cases yesterday, 160 cases Wednesday and 179 cases Tuesday. In addition, we had 10 deaths. We now have a total of 4,378 cases and 237 deaths.
Hospital admissions for DuPage are shown above with the highest number of admissions being 34 on April 20th and the most current date of May 6 showing seven admissions. The total DuPage hospital admissions is 895.
Our statistics show the outcomes for people with underlying conditions are at great risk. DCHD has worked to make our county healthy and that work has shown that are metrics, while distressful, are much better than other counties on a per capita basis. More, however, can be done if we can unleash the generosity of our people by giving to DuPage Health Matters, our charitable organization.
If everyone gives $10, $25, $75 or whatever amount they can afford, we will raise the additional funds to reduce hypertension and obesity, which are main underlying conditions causing deaths from COVID-19. Please share this information and urge people to join us in the last week of Giving Days DuPage. Click HERE to donate and please share on social media to all of your contacts. Thank you for your generosity, assistance, and support at this difficult time.

Unfortunately, the entire State of Illinois positive rate case is not a factor in whether our county will soon reopen. It does, however, indicate that while we continue to have thousands of new cases, we are also testing many people who are negative for COVID 19.
The specific number of cases and deaths in our region, as of today, are as follows:

Unfortunately, Chicago has an average rate of 24.9 percent. The Governor noted today that all the other regions of the state are below the 20 percent rate.
The indicators as shown above, with the exception of the positive case rate, are within the parameters necessary to move into phase 3 according to the Governor's Restore Illinois plan.
In the Northeastern region, daily hospital admissions have decreased from 307 on May 1st to 267 on May 8th. Each day showed a decrease in the number of admissions.

Illinois has now performed 442,425 tests and 79,007 tests have been positive. The positive test rate for the day was 10.1 percent and continues a trend that we have followed since last Monday as shown below:
Unfortunately, the entire State of Illinois positive rate case is not a factor in whether our county will soon reopen. It does, however, indicate that while we continue to have thousands of new cases, we are also testing many people who are negative for COVID 19.
The specific number of cases and deaths in our region, as of today, are as follows:
The statewide number of COVID 19 hospital patients as of midnight was 4,319 up from 4,293 yesterday but down from 4739 Saturday and from 4750 Friday. Of those patients, 1248 are in ICU beds. Of those patients, 730 are on ventilators. Hospital Region 8, which is primarily DuPage, has 98 of its 511 ICU beds and 244 of its 397 ventilators available. The graph below shows hospitalization utilization over time. As of midnight, in addition to the number of COVID-19 patients, there were 17,156 non-COVID-19 patients in the hospital and 11,008 open beds.
Open beds or ventilators are represented by the orange color. The light blue represents non-COVID-19 patients and the dark blue in all three categories are the COVID-19 patients.
International statistics from the World Health Organization and CDC provide the following breakdown of cases from earlier today:
Globally, there are 2,406,547 active cases compared to 2,377,182 active cases yesterday. The active cases are divided between 'mild condition' cases and 'serious or critical condition' cases. Active mild cases are now 98%.
The new normal as we enter new phases may include people wearing masks at work and in public. However, we do not have enough masks now and we'll need more in the future if everyone needs to wear a mask. You can help by donating masks by clicking HERE. If you do not have a mask to donate, but you want to help, DuPage Health Matters is accepting monetary donations that can be used to purchase PPE. The link to our page to donate is HERE.
IDPH addressed the concerns many that the COVID-19 death count is being overestimated or underestimated. According to Dr. Ngozi Ezeke, cases in which individuals died with a positive diagnosis but the cause of death is obviously not COVID-19, such as a car accident or gunshot wound, are being removed from the death totals. However, in other cases, in which patients may have both COVID-19 and other conditions, it is more difficult to separate the cause of death.
The Northeastern Region of the Governor's Restore Illinois Plan includes DuPage County. According to the plan, the entire region needs a 20 percent positivity rate over a 14-day period. You should be aware that DuPage has tested below this rate consistently as noted by the chart below. DuPage remains below the 20 percent positive rate.
As of today, the only number that continues to be a problem for the Northeastern region is the positivity rate, which is 21.4%.

Today, Dr. Ngozi Ezike, the Director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, praised local health departments, including the DuPage County Health Department, as she recognized the work being done at the local level. She reminded people that resources are used daily at the local level to prevent diseases, keep our food safe, and contain outbreaks. For about 30 days, you've heard about the countywide fundraiser known as Giving DuPage Days and the health department's 501(c)(3) organization, DuPage Health Matters, as we compete to raise funds during these difficult times. We received good news late yesterday that a donor has agreed to match the next $5,000 in donations to our organization. It is a challenge, but with your help we may be able to reach the goal. Please let your network of contacts know that tomorrow is the last day for donating to this cause. The link to the page is HERE
The Northeastern Region of the Governor's Restore Illinois Plan includes DuPage County. According to the plan, the entire region needs a 20 percent positivity rate over a 14-day period. Below is a graph showing both the daily positivity rate and the rolling seven day average. On May 10th, which is highlighted, the seven day rolling average is 21 percent and the daily reported positivity rate is 15 percent. On May 23rd, the first of the seven days, the seven day average was 23 percent and the daily reported percentage was 22.
As of today, the only number that continues to be a problem for the Northeastern region is the positivity rate. The arrow in the green for other variables, however, is good news for a move to phase 3.
Today, the DuPage County Health Department confirmed COVID-19 cases have increased by 117 compared to 347 cases yesterday, 155 cases Monday and 95 cases Sunday. In addition, we had 10 deaths.

The seven-day rolling statewide positive test rate, with a 3-day lag, for the day was 17 percent compared to 18 percent yesterday. The difference between this rate and the Northeastern rate, cited above, has fueled openings of businesses and decisions by some areas downstate to ignore the Governor's order.
The specific number of cases and deaths in the Northeastern region, as of today, are as follows:
The statewide number of COVID 19 hospital patients as of midnight was 4,563 down from 4,626 yesterday. Of those patients, 1,208, down from 1,215, yesterday, are in ICU Beds.

For the first time in the history of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Northeast Region of the Governor's Restore Illinois Plan is within all the metrics in phase 3. All of these metrics have to average these numbers for 14 days but despite that reality, it is good news that we now see a positivity rate below 20 percent and it appears that phase three will be arriving at the end of May as planned. The Northeast region, which counts DuPage as a member, was the last of the four state regions to "go green" with all of its metric.
While everyone is happy after reading the good news in the first paragraph and looking at the graphs above, I wanted to make one last pitch for DuPage Health Matters. Perhaps, today is the day that the word will spread as we meet the challenge to raise $5,000 by midnight tonight. Spread the word to all of your email contacts and social media contacts. It does work when we all send out the word. Again the link to the page is HERE. Donations are tax deductible and for every dollar you give, it will be matched by another dollar from our generous donor. That is the power of giving to DuPage Health Matters on this day as we close Giving Days DuPage at midnight.

Many of you have asked for the information that is provided below, which we update on a weekly basis. As you can see by the graphs, 75.7 percent of the deaths of DuPage residents are associated with a long-term care facility. The lower graph shows that 72.7 percent of the deaths are of people with an underlying medical condition.

The data that is being shared worldwide has indicated that individuals with underlying conditions are more likely to suffer greater consequences from contracting the virus. The graph below from the DuPage County Health Department, indicates that of the COVID-19 deaths for DuPage residents, the majority had at least one underlying condition. We share that data weekly and it has remained statistically constant through this pandemic. Many of the underlying conditions can be eliminated through lifestyle choices and perhaps the losses suffered through this pandemic will make everyone aware of the need for community health initiatives and personal responsibility for one's own health. As the first graph shows, the existence of one underlying medical condition is a major factor among all age groups for deaths. In addition to people with underlying conditions being more likely to die from the virus, they are more likely to have more intensive health issues while suffering from the virus.
In addition, nursing home deaths during the pandemic have shined a spotlight on long-term care facilities. At a recent briefing, the Illinois Department of Public Health Director, Ngozi Ezike, agreed that nursing home residents were suffering a disproportionate share of deaths compared to cases. She said that this fact pattern was also true in Europe

DuPage and Kane Counties are Region 8
Region 8 Numbers for DuPage and Kane:
The Governor's newly formed regions as of yesterday, will look at specific metrics: Positivity rate, hospital admissions and medical and ICU bed availability.
The target for the three-day positivity rate is less than 8 percent and if there is a three-day test positivity at or above 8 percent, there is a warning. Region 8 has had a four-day increase of the positivity rate as shown below but the rate is now at 3.9 percent. According to the State of Illinois, when this average increases from the previous day, it is flagged. The target is to have fewer than 7 out of 10 days with a daily increase. If there are 7 or more such days, there is a warning.
Hospital admissions are the second metric. Whenever the daily seven-day hospital admissions number increases, it is flagged. The target is once again to have fewer than 7 days out of the last ten with a daily increase in admissions. If there is seven or more days in the last ten days, with a daily increase, there is a warning. As of today, there has only been one day with an increase in admissions.
The third metric being reviewed is medical and surgical bed availability. The target is to have at least 20 percent of the medical and surgical beds available. If the percentage drops below 20 percent there is a warning.
Medical and surgical bed availability is reported daily by each hospital and represents the number of medical and surgical hospital beds that are empty. Hospitals are assigned to one of 11 Illinois COVID regions. For each region, the sum of the available medical and surgical beds over the last three days is divided by the sum of the total medical and surgical beds (i.e., bed capacity) over the same period. Currently, Region 8 has 34 percent of its hospital beds available and 49 percent of its ICU beds available.
If Region 8 ICU beds and ventilators were unavailable, other regions would be used to care for sick patients. As such, the Illinois Department of Public Health makes us aware of the ICU and ventilator availability throughout the state. Those numbers, as seen below, indicate that 1,709 ICU beds and 4,484 ventilators are available throughout the state.

The 80 and over age group has 918 cases.
As we have reported in previous weeks, the graph on cases and deaths do differ with older residents' cases resulting in the great majority of deaths. None of the cases under 20 years old have resulted in death and only one case in the 20 to 29-year-old group has ended in death.

The Governor announced today that the COVID-19 risk level in DuPage County has changed from blue to orange on the Illinois Department of Public Health County Level Risk Metrics Map. An orange designation indicates warning signs of increased COVID-19 risk in the community. Eight different indicators are used to determine a county's designation. A county is considered at the orange 'Warning' level when at least two of the main indicators are going in the wrong direction. Individuals, families, and community groups should use this information to help inform their choices about personal and family gatherings, as well as what activities they choose to do. An increase in case rates and deaths from August 30 - September 5, 2020 have led to the change to an orange 'Warning' designation for DuPage County. 30 counties have this warning designation.
