Gov. J.B. Pritzker is ending the state’s requirement that unvaccinated school and day care workers undergo routine testing for COVID-19, removing one of the few remaining mandates Illinois has in place to combat the spread of the disease.
Dr. Sameer Vohra, director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, said a statement that new tools, such as the pediatric vaccines, new boosters aimed at the latest variants and more effective treatment have improved the ability to manage the virus. Public health officials recently have focused on promoting the new booster shots, authorized at the end of August for people 12 and older who’ve previously been vaccinated, as the primary hope for warding off another surge as the weather turns cold and people spend more time indoors.
