We're there in Illinois.
ICU bed usage was under 70% as of yesterday.
Thankfully, I'm seeing a VERY high % of people wearing masks inside stores and lots of distancing adherence.
The tools not wearing masks stand out!
Even as things open, staying that diligent should keep the hospital situation manageable.
But, people will still get sick & some will sadly die.

DeWine should shut the bars down for 30 more days so these yahoos get the message.
