ADDENDA TO THE AGENDA

SPECIAL RECOGNITION AND PRESENTATIONS

PUBLIC COMMENT (ITEMS NOT ON THE AGENDA)

CHAIR'S REMARKS

This month I had an opportunity to participate in veteran’s events across Lake County. It was very special to attend the event at the Waukegan Airport with Vice Chair Cunningham and Members Casbon and Roberts for the unveiling of the new Veterans Memorial and hear Senator Duckworth speak about the importance of the new Veterans Memorial and of course recognizing our veterans for their service and their sacrifices.

I had an opportunity to meet Health and Human Services Director Xavier Becerra after his tour of Lake County last month. I must say that the best part of the visit was hearing from the different health and service providers who spoke passionately about their work helping people who live with addiction and the ingenuity they showed in ensuring that they got the help and resources they needed, particularly during the height of the pandemic.

I attended the LCML award dinner at the RLB Cultural Center with Vice Chair Cunningham and Member Wasik. It was great to see a lot of familiar faces after such a long time and hear about the awards that were given out.

A great highlight was a visit to North Chicago’s Neal Science & Math Academy, which has been going up very very quickly and children are expected to be in the building for the 2022-2023 school year. It is a beautiful building and a tremendous gift from Abbvie, which has been an outstanding partner here in Lake County.

Happy to say that I attended the LAST mosquito abatement district meeting, so that will soon come off of people’s tax bills in that area, which includes portions of North Chicago, unincorporated Lake Bluff, Green Oaks, and Lake Bluff.

There were several other meetings with mayors and village presidents and I want to especially thank them for taking the time out for their busy schedule to meet. As we know, but maybe not everybody does, they often serve without any compensation. They work an enormous number of hours and they do it because they love their community. I’m sure it’s a hard job all the time, but especially over the last two years as they worked to ensure that their residents receive the services they need and there was no interruption in that service.

So I just want to say thank you to my colleagues on the board, our outstanding Lake County staff, and all the people who have worked so hard behind the scenes to continue to deliver exceptional services to the people of Lake County.

Board of Health Report.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Updates:

On November 26, 2021, the World Health Organization, classified a new variant of concern, B.1.1.529, also known as Omicron.

The Omicron variant was first reported in the United States in California. Cases have been found across the country including in Illinois.

The CDC is working with public health and industry partners to learn more about the Omicron variant and recommends the public continue following mitigation strategies to prevent further spread of COVID-19.

While public health officials are still learning more about the new variant, individuals are advised to continue taking effective COVID-19 precautions. These include following the 3 Ws: Wear a mask, Wash your hands, and Watch your distance; and getting the vaccine if you have not already.

As of December 9, 2021:

Over 237 million people, or 71.5 percent of the U.S. population, have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Over 200 million people, or 60.5 percent of the U.S. population are fully vaccinated. Over 49 million people, or 24.9 percent of the fully vaccinated population have received a booster dose.

More than 79 percent of counties in the U.S., including Lake County, remain in high community transmission. Many counties, including Lake County, have recently seen a surge in cases.

As of December 10, Lake County has had over 80,205 confirmed COVID-19 cases and 1,123 deaths throughout the pandemic. Lake County’s recovery rate is 98.5 percent. For more information on Lake County’s response to COVID-19, please visit the Lake County Coronavirus website, www.lakecountyil.gov/coronavirus, and sign up for email updates from the Health Department.

COVID-19 Vaccination Updates:

The Lake County Health Department is pleased to share that Lake County has administered over 1 million doses of the COVID-19 vaccine.

According to data provided by the Illinois Department of Public Health, more than 70 percent of eligible Lake County residents have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, and more than 62 percent are fully vaccinated.

The Health Department wants to thank all Lake County residents who made the choice to protect their community and get vaccinated. The Health Department also extends its appreciation to all the community partners, pharmacies, providers, and volunteers who have administered vaccinations and helped us reach this milestone.

The Center for Disease Control has recommended that all individuals ages 16 and older get a COVID-19 vaccine booster dose. Moderna and Johnson & Johnson have been authorized for booster doses for individuals 18 years and older. Only Pfizer has been authorized for boosters for individuals ages 16 and 17 years old.

Those who received a Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine should receive a booster shot at least 6 months after finishing their primary series.

Those who received Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen COVID-19 vaccine should receive a booster shot at least 2 months after finishing their primary series.

There are many ways to get your booster shot. You can schedule an appointment with your healthcare provider, pharmacy, or at retail locations. There are over 200 locations throughout Lake County that may have COVID-19 booster vaccine availability. Visit Vaccines.gov to find a vaccine near you.

Ethylene Oxide (EtO) Update:

On November 19, 2021, the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) published a cancer incidence study for Lake County, Illinois. The study was completed in response to the Health Department’s request to study the potential impact on cancer incidence from two facilities, Medline Industries, Inc. in Waukegan and Vantage Specialty Chemicals in Gurnee, that emit ethylene oxide (EtO).

The Lake County Health Department and County Board Chair Hart has requested that the IDPH host a public forum to explain the study’s findings to Lake County residents, but it has not been scheduled at this time.

For a detailed description of the findings and for frequently asked questions, visit the IDPH webpage, IDPH Cancer Assessment, Lake County, Illinois.

For inquiries regarding the study, please contact the IDPH.

National Influenza Vaccination Week is December 5-11

With the holidays here, that means more people are spending time with friends and family, but it also brings opportunity for spreading flu and other respiratory illnesses.

According to the CDC, flu activity during the 2020-2021 season was very low, likely due to COVID-19 prevention measures.

Flu viruses constantly change, which is why it is still important to get a flu shot every year. Seasonal flu and COVID-19 are caused by different viruses, so it is still important to get both vaccines.

The annual flu vaccine is recommended for everyone 6 months and older. Visit VaccineFinder.org to find a flu shot near you.
