Pritzker extends 'modified' stay-at-home order

CHICAGO — Gov. J.B. Pritzker is extending the state's stay-at-home order through May, with several changes from the one into place last month.

The governor is holding a press conference at this hour.

“Make no mistake, Illinois has saved lives. By staying home and social distancing, we have kept our infection and death rates for the months of March and April thousands below the rates projected had we not implemented these mitigation strategies,” the governor said in a statement. “I know how badly we all want our normal lives back. But this is the part where we have to dig in and understand that the sacrifices we’ve made as a state to avoid a worst-case scenario are working — and we need to keep going a little while longer to finish the job.”

The following information was released by the governor's office:

The new executive order will include the following modifications effective May 1:

    OUTDOOR RECREATION: State parks will begin a phased re-opening under guidance from the Department of Natural Resources. Fishing and boating in groups of no more than two people will be permitted. A list of parks that will be open on May 1 and additional guidelines can be found on the Illinois Department of Natural Resources website HERE . Golf will be permitted under strict safety guidelines provided by the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) and when ensuring that social distancing is followed.

    NEW ESSENTIAL BUSINESSES: Greenhouses, garden centers and nurseries may re-open as essential businesses. These stores must follow social distancing requirements and must require that employees and customers wear a face covering. Animal grooming services may also re-open.
     
    NON-ESSENTIAL RETAIL: Retail stores not designated as non-essential businesses and operations may re-open to fulfill telephone and online orders through pick-up outside the store and delivery.
     
    FACE COVERINGS: Beginning on May 1, individuals will be required to wear a face-covering or a mask when in a public place where they can’t maintain a six-foot social distance. Face-coverings will be required in public indoor spaces, such as stores. This new requirement applies to all individuals over the age of two who are able to medically tolerate a face-covering or a mask.
     
    ESSENTIAL BUSINESSES AND MANUFACTURING: Essential businesses and manufacturers will be required to provide face-coverings to all employees who are not able to maintain six-feet of social distancing, as well as follow new requirements that maximize social distancing and prioritize the well-being of employees and customers. This will include occupancy limits for essential businesses and precautions such as staggering shifts and operating only essential lines for manufacturers.
     
    SCHOOLS:  Educational institutions may allow and establish procedures for pick-up of necessary supplies or student belongings. Dormitory move-outs must follow public health guidelines, including social distancing.

I think "Extended and tightened the grip" would be a better descriptor.   9999hair out0000

Another month isolated from the Grands.  8888crybaby  What if you said "Screw it" and went anyway?
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.

Arizona's RINO Governor won't commit to opening anything on 4/30.  Our little town should never have had these restrictions, and I'll be pretty pissed if things are still locked down here after that, if restrictions continue because of the numbers in Phoenix and Tucson.  Complaints from those metro areas is why I have them here now.

More importantly for our local economy, what's Nevada Governor Sisolak's plan to reopen the casinos in Laughlin?  Even if he only keeps casinos closed in some counties, Laughlin will get swept into that because it's in Clark County, with Las Vegas.  I have no interest in gambling  but I want to see those folks working again.  Casinos are especially risky because they attract people from all over the world and we'd start seeing foreign faces around town.

One of the long-existing political under-currents in some states is the resentment and anger in more rural counties toward the few large cities that all but control many states.

In this context, the SiP order in California makes some sense in SF Bay Area counties and populous parts of LA, Orange, and San Diego Counties, but in Modoc County where deer outnumber people or Trinity County where trout outnumber people?
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Pritzker looks like he could jump right out of a episode of The Sopranos. 

Probably has the same moral values too.
I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

Isn't international travel into the U.S. still prohibited? 
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

I have no idea.  Not if the Demcrats have anything to say about it...they're still calling the border restrictions "xenophobic."

Nevada has a clash of Demonrats heating up.  The Rat mayor of Vegas vs the Rat Goobernor in Carson City are sharpening their rhetoric.
