Illinois Reports New 1-Day Record of More Than 4,000 New Coronavirus Cases – NBC5 (Chicago)

The record high number of cases can't be entirely attributed to the large amount of tests conducted, however, because although a high number of tests were reported, the 7-day rolling statewide positivity rate also jumped from 4.6% to 4.9% on Thursday, continuing to rise once again. As of Wednesday night, 1,932 people in Illinois were reported to be in the hospital with COVID-19. Of those, 388 patients were in the ICU and 147 patients were on ventilators.

Cases–perhaps–but it doesn’t mean that someone is in the hospital. It does not mean that someone is feeling symptoms. The majority of people recover from this. The state of Illinois wants to use this pandemic as a scare tactic to make people more dependent upon the government. It has been shown to be true because of all that Pritzker has put forth and what he has not opened. His science is kabuki science.

Out of 12M population there are 331,620 cases of which 9,127 died. The 9,127 that died out of 12M is .076% or less than .1%. According to IDPH there is a 96% recovery rate out of the 331,620 cases. Hope my math is correct.

“We are not in good shape” Wirepoints’ Ted Dabrowski told ABC 20 Champaign during a segment on Illinois’ latest population losses. Illinois was one of just three states to shrink in the 2010-2020 period and has lost another 300,000 people since then. Ted says things need to change. “It’s too expensive to live here, there aren’t enough good jobs and nobody trusts the government anymore.
