After Tuesday’s announcement that Illinois’ top doctor would be leaving her position later this month, the state’s Department of Public Health Director Director Dr. Ngozi Ezike detailed her next focus.
In announcing her departure, Pritzker proclaimed Tuesday Dr. Ngozi Ezike Day in Illinois, acknowledging her role in the state's fight against the coronavirus pandemic.
Pritzker said he was"loathe to accept" news of Ezike's departure, but added that"she will go down in the Illinois history books as a woman who saved lives and changed our state for the better." “It has been a great honor serving the people of Illinois as the director of the Illinois Department of Public Health. Being the state’s top doc during a global pandemic has been challenging to say the least, but it’s been an amazing journey to work with so many great public health professionals and leaders from all sectors,” Ezike said in a statement.
