EDITOR'S NOTE: The data contained in this article is revised from earlier numbers released by the Illinois Department of Public Health. Previous data had shown 3,265 cases connected to assisted-living facilities, as well as 272 deaths.
New data from the Illinois Department of Public Health shows how widespread the coronavirus has become in the state’s nursing homes, with at least 286 deaths and nearly 1,900 cases of the virus reported by officials.
The data, gleaned from 21 of Illinois’ 102 counties, features data from every assisted living facility and nursing home that has reported a positive COVID-19 case in those counties. A total of 286 deaths have been reported as a result of COVID-19, and 1,860 cases of the virus have been confirmed by laboratory testing in the facilities located in those counties.
Hardest hit among the state’s counties is Cook County, with at least 100 facilities reporting cases of the virus. A total of 804 cases have been reported in Cook County nursing facilities, along with 144 deaths.
In DuPage County, 313 laboratory-confirmed cases of the virus have been reported, along with 39 deaths. Will County has also been hard hit by the virus, with at least 218 cases of the virus reported, along with 37 deaths.
The top five counties in terms of cases reported:
- Cook County - 804 cases confirmed, 144 deaths
- DuPage County - 313 cases confirmed, 39 deaths
- Will County - 218 cases confirmed, 37 deaths
- Lake County - 149 cases confirmed, 35 deaths
- Kane County - 76 cases confirmed, 10 deaths
On Saturday, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker said that he reached out to governors of other states, including Washington Governor Jay Inslee and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, about best practices to limit the spread of COVID-19 in congregant settings, including nursing homes, but said that even with the state’s early efforts, he is still frustrated by the virus’ spread.
“I’m frustrated by this. It’s very hard to deal with congregant settings,” he said. “We have a strike team that goes into a nursing home when we discover there’s an outbreak. We bring in infectious disease specialists to make sure they’re wearing their PPE properly, and that they understand what the policies and procedures need to be where there’s an outbreak.”
Several facilities in the state, including Symphony of Joliet and the Chateau Nursing & Rehabilitation Center in Willowbrook, have reported large-scale outbreaks of the disease since the pandemic began. At least 23 people have died at the Joliet facility, while 10 people have died at the Willowbrook facility.
