Governor’s Plan to reopen:

Illinois has a 5-Phase (with a Bridge Phase between phases 4 and 5) reopening plan. All regions in Illinois are currently in Phase 4.

The Bridge Phase offers Illinois a bridge between the state's current Phase 4 restrictions and the "new normal" operations of Phase 5. This "Bridge Phase" will serve as a transition period with higher capacity limits and increased business operations, without prematurely embracing a reckless reopening before the majority of Illinoisans have been vaccinated. All regions of the state will move through the Bridge Phase and ultimately to Phase 5, together.

Mask Mandates:

In Illinois, any individual who is over age two and able to medically tolerate a face covering (a mask or cloth face covering) is required to cover their nose and mouth with a face covering when in a public place and unable to maintain a six-foot social distance. This requirement applies whether in an indoor space, such as a store, or in a public outdoor space where maintaining a six-foot social distance is not always possible.

Mass Gathering Restrictions:

In Illinois, indoor gatherings of more than one household are prohibited, unless a limited exemption applies. Further, outdoor gatherings of more than 10 people are equally prohibited.
