Friday’s coronavirus updates: Main area looking good to advance to Phase 4 in 3 weeks; Feline becomes first Illinois pet to test positive; State surpasses 1M tests -Gazette

To advance to Phase 4 of Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s five-phase Restore Illinois plan three weeks from now, areas will need to hit the very same metrics that they did to proceed to Stage 3 last week.

Up until now, so helpful for the central area, which includes Champaign, Douglas, Ford, Piatt and Vermilion counties.

Here’s an update at how the main and the 3 other regions are faring in the 3 metrics, according to Illinois Department of Public Health information:

The central area has a best-in-the-state 2.0 percent favorable rate, compared to 4 percent for the southern, 6 percent for the north-central and 11 percent for the northeast.

3 of the state’s four regions appear well on their method to conference this standard– the northeast is down 71 percent, the southern down 36 percent, the main down 35 percent and the north-central down 5 percent.

Percentages for the central area: 52 percent in ICU beds, 45 percent in medical/surgical beds and 78 percent in ventilators.

— For the northeast: 36 percent in ICU beds, 30 percent in medical/surgical beds and 70 percent in ventilators.

— For the north main: 48 percent in ICU beds, 45 percent in medical/surgical beds and 69 percent in ventilators.
