Board of Health Report.
Coronavirus (COVID-19) Updates:
In Lake County, we have had over 47,000 confirmed cases, and over 770 confirmed deaths. Our recovery rate is currently over 97 percent.
In Region 9, which is Lake and McHenry Counties, our testing positivity rate is at 10.4% as of January 4. This rate dropped to 8.5% as of December 26, 2020, but has been gradually climbing since.
Every region in the state remains in Tier 3 mitigation. The State is assessing trends and has determined that on January 15, 2021 if Region metrics allow, Regions may move out of Tier 3.
On December 9, the Lake County Health Department introduced the Lake County AllVax Portal. All Lake County residents can register to be notified when a COVID-19 vaccine is available to them. Registering is free, easy, and secure at AllVax.lakecohealth.org, or by calling (847) 377-8130.
So far, more than 175,000 residents have registered on the AllVax Portal.
On December 17, the Health Department received its first shipment of over 6,800 doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, which were immediately redistributed to Lake County hospitals to vaccinate their frontline staff.
As of January 6, 2021, the Health Department received 20,475 doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine and 1,200 doses of the Moderna vaccine. An additional 7,600 doses of the Moderna vaccine have been shipped directly to Lake County hospitals and a separate shipment to Naval Station Great Lakes.
Currently, COVID-19 vaccine supply is limited. Following guidelines from the CDC, only people eligible under Phase 1a, healthcare personnel and long-term care facility residents, can receive their vaccine at this time.
The Lake County Health Department is providing vaccines as they become available to healthcare workers not affiliated with a hospital system. If this applies to you, please make sure you are registered in the AllVax system so we can notify you when you can schedule your appointment.
On December 28, the Health Department began drive-through COVID-19 vaccination clinics, and in five days vaccinated 1,249 healthcare workers, public health staff, and EMA professionals.
Vaccinations at long-term care facilities in Lake County also began on December 28, 2020. These vaccinations are being performed by Walgreens and CVS through a state/federal program.
Follow the 3 Ws consistently: Wear a mask, Wash your hands, and Watch your distance. Lake County Illinois
The Health Department continues to work with businesses and many other facets of the community to prevent and control the spread of COVID-19. For more information, please visit the Lake County Coronavirus website, www.lakecountyil.gov/coronavirus.

It is not too late to get vaccinated. The flu vaccine is still available from many providers and retail locations throughout Lake County. Contact your doctor or visit www.vaccinefinder.org to search for locations where flu vaccinations are given then call ahead to check on availability.
January is National Radon Action Month
Radon gas is the leading cause of lung cancer among nonsmokers, claiming the lives of approximately 21,000 Americans each year.
Radon is a naturally occurring gas with no odor or color. It can seep into your home through cracks or other holes in your home’s foundation.
Nearly 1 out of every 15 homes in the U.S. is estimated to have elevated radon levels. Lake County residents should test the radon levels in their home during the winter months, when indoor radon levels are at their highest.
Testing for radon is easy, inexpensive, and the only way to know if your family is at risk of radon exposure.
The Health Department offers short-term testing kits for $10.00, available at 500 W. Winchester Rd., Libertyville, or for $13 by mail. The cost includes return postage, laboratory analysis and interpretation by Health Department staff. Test kits are also available from area hardware and building supply stores.
For more information and testing kits, call (847) 377-8020 or visit the Health Department’s website.
January is Cervical Health Awareness Month

The HPV vaccine can prevent HPV, and cervical cancer can be prevented with regular screening tests and follow-up care.

Lake County Partners Report.
2020 Was the Year of Innovation in Lake County
Despite 2020’s challenges, Lake County Partners quickly pivoted and led efforts to mitigate the impact of COVID-19. Lake County saw a very strong year of economic development, with huge wins in key industries that will set the stage for a very active 2021. Among the successes:
Lake County Partners helped the county distribute $16.5 million in small business recovery grants to keep 1,200 small businesses open.
Workforce Ecosystem partners collaborated to fill 2,300+ critical jobs at Abbott’s new COVID-19 test assembly facility in Gurnee.
Job growth continued at many of our expanding companies. In life sciences, there were big advancements at Horizon Therapeutics, Takeda Pharmaceuticals, Xttrium Labs (pronounced zi-tree-um), AveXis, Medline, Valent Biosciences and Pharma Logistics. In manufacturing and technology, growth continues at VaporBus, EVBox, Profile Plastics, Fischer Paper, Laser Precision, Flexan and many more. While some small businesses are hurting, there are pockets of strength in the Lake County economy.
Lake County Partners and the Small Business Development Center at CLC have partnered with Wipfli and the First Bank of Highland Park to host special webinars on the latest round of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans for small business. Dates and times will be announced shortly.
Lake County Partners is working with businesses and community leaders to further drive success, and our new website is a great resource for project details and other opportunities: www.lakecountypartners.com
