Protesters Call for Chicago to Reinstate Mask Mandate Due to Rising
COVID Cases
Both Illinois and Chicago rescinded their mask mandates in February
following decreases in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations

A number of Chicago residents stood together in the Little Village
neighborhood Sunday, pleading for the city to reinstate its COVID-19
mask mandate to prevent a possible surge following another uptick in cases.

Ald. Byron Sigcho-Lopez, of the city's 25th Ward, along with members of
the People's Response Network, expressed concerns about mask mandates
being lifted locally and nationwide.

In late February, both the state of Illinois and city of Chicago
rescinded their mask mandates after sustained decreases in the number of
new cases and hospitalizations.

Protesters argue Chicago's Department of Public Health didn't do a good
job at handling the pandemic and said the city's Black and Brown
communities are still at risk. The group also presented a list of
demands, including reintroducing the mask mandate across the city and in
Chicago Public Schools.

“We need to make sure that we prioritize the well being and the health
of our students and staff in CPS," Sigcho-Lopez said. "We have schools
like in Pilsen in the 25th Ward, where we still have vaccination rates
that don't even reach 50% 30%? In some cases, higher. Is it possible
that we're still insisting on lifting a mandate?”

The group is also pushing for the expansion of free COVID-19 testing for
at-risk communities on the South, Southwest and West sides of the city.

The Illinois Department of Public Health in early April issued a COVID
public health warning, saying "case rates are slowly rising in many
areas of the state." Health officials advised people to pay attention to
the conditions in their communities and to stay up-to-date on their
vaccinations.

Chicago, too, has seen a recent uptick in cases.

The city was averaging 521 daily COVID cases as of Friday, a 15% hike
from a week earlier, according to data from CDPH. However, both
hospitalizations and deaths were down from the week prior.

Chicago's community level status remains low, the least severe of the
three risk levels as defined by the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention.

The only *healthy* way to stop the pandemic, thereby saving lives, in
the U.S. & elsewhere is by rapidly ( http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19 )
finding out at any given moment, including even while on-line, who
among us are unwittingly contagious (i.e pre-symptomatic or
asymptomatic) in order to http://tinyurl.com/ConvinceItForward (John
15:12) for them to call their doctor and self-quarantine per their
doctor in hopes of stopping this pandemic. Thus, we're hoping for the
best while preparing for the worse-case scenario of the Alpha lineage
mutations and others like the Omicron, Gamma, Beta, Epsilon, Iota,
Lambda, Mu & Delta lineage mutations combining via
slip-RNA-replication to form hybrids like
http://tinyurl.com/Deltamicron that may render current COVID
vaccines/monoclonals/medicines/pills no longer effective.

Indeed, I am wonderfully hungry ( http://tinyurl.com/RapidOmicronTest

So how are you ?









...because we mindfully choose to openly care with our heart,

Be hungrier, which really is wonderfully healthier especially for
diabetics and other heart disease patients:
