Less positive COVID-19 cases means less mitigations to live under.

Governor J.B. Pritzker announced Friday afternoon that Region 2 of the state which includes Bureau, La Salle, Marshall and Putnam counties can move from Tier 3 to Tier 2 mitigations. This change allows for movie theaters and museums to reopen with limited capacity and also allows for video gaming machines to start back up. Keep in mind the Illinois Gaming Board says they aren't turning machines on until Saturday morning at 8.

Indoor bar service and dining is still not allowed under the state's Tier 2 mitigations. Limited capacity for bars and restaurants comes into play with Tier 1 or when a region's 7-day positivity rate falls below 6.5%. Right now Region 2's positivity rate is 7.9%.
