Governor J.B. Pritzker is not budging on his January 15 ^th date to loosen COVID-19 restrictions in some regions.  He spoke on the subject at a press conference this afternoon.  The entire state is following Tier Three mitigations.  No regions have changed status since November 20th.  To move to Tier Two, a region must keep a positivity rate of less than 12-percent for three consecutive days, have more than 20-percent of ICU beds available, and see declining hospitalizations.
