DIXON – Lee County reported 16 new cases of COVID-19 on Tuesday, with half that total newly recovered. The Lee County Health Department announced 8 new recoveries of the novel coronavirus, bringing the total recovered up to 384. Statewide, the Illinois Department of Public Health reported 2,851 new cases and 29 confirmed deaths. The death total since the pandemic began in the state is now at 9,026
“More than 9,000 Illinoisans — our mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, family, friends, and neighbors — have had their lives cut short by COVID-19, leaving tens of thousands more to grieve loved ones lost too soon,” said Governor JB Pritzker. “As we pause today to mourn these individual and collective losses, may we find strength in the tools we have to protect our communities: wearing a mask, watching our distance, and respecting public health and each other. My heart breaks for all those who have lost a loved one in this battle we never asked to fight – may their memories be for a blessing.”
