TONIGHT, CHICAGO'S MAYOR A VERY
STERN WARNING THAT SHE MAY TAKE
PARTS OF THE CITY BACK
REGARDING THE REOPENING OF BARS

BECAUSE COVID CASES ARE UP
AMONG YOUNG ADULTS, NOT WEARING

PARK TONIGHT. SHE JOINS US WITH
THAT SHANNON.

CHICAGO. CORONAVIRUS CASES IS
NOW HERE IN LINCOLN PARK, IT'S
AN AREA FULL OF BARS,
RESTAURANTS AND A YOUNG
POPULATION.
IT'S BEEN LESS THAN 3 WEEKS

LORI LIGHTFOOT ISSUED A NEW
WARNING TO CHICAGOANS IF WE
CONTINUE TO SEE THIS UPTICK IN
CASES WE'RE GOING TO HAVE NO
CHOICE BUT TO GO BACK INTO
PHASE 3 THAT MEANS SHUTTING
BUSINESSES DOWN THAT MEANS
IMPOSING MORE RESTRICTIONS ON
