Modified Quarantine Rules Begin on May 1

A modified version of Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker’s Stay-At-Home order will go into effect starting Friday.

According to the Chicago Sun Times, starting May 1, any individual who is over the age of 2 will be required to wear a face mask or covering of some kind when in a public place if they cannot maintain the six feet social distancing rule. The modifications also include some loosened restrictions such as multiple state parks and golf courses allowed to reopen. However, Illinois golf courses can only reopen under strict new requirements.
