On Thursday, July 2, Chicago Department of Public Health Commissioner Allison Arwady, M.D., issued an Emergency Travel Order directing travelers entering or returning to Chicago from states experiencing a surge in new COVID-19 cases to quarantine for a 14-day period from the time of last contact within the identified state. The Order will go into effect on Monday July 6, 2020, at 12:01am. Below you will find answers to common questions regarding the Emergency Travel Order and how it applies to Chicago residents and visitors.
States Currently Covered by the Order When the order goes into effect on July 6, travelers from the following states will be directed to quarantine upon arrival in Chicago: Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Nevada, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Utah.
Went through an airport there once. A creepy, little plainclothes cop was loudly sexually harassing all of the men in the restroom in his perverted effort to arrest any straight men who disagreed with his behavior. Not a place I’d want to go to again.
I’m from SC and have NO plans to get anywhere near Chitown.
They need to enact a quarantine against black on black crime.
Chicqueergo seems like a fitting name for that city.
Which single handedly adds on average 2.376 more years to the lives of folks that won’t be able to come there.
Thanks Chicago. Didn’t know you cared...
Now, if you could just get that epidemic of Blacks killing
Blacks under control.
Very interesting. You shouldn’t die in Chicago from flu, but it’s just fine to get shot.
Multiple problems with this.
1) The city doesn’t have this power. Neither states nor cities may interfere with interstate travel.
2) How will they enforce it?
3) Who will arrest the violators?
4) Where will they stop and catch the violators? On I-80? I-55? I-355?
5) Will this apply to people driving through Chicago?
This is in competition for one of the stupider things I’ve heard today.
No. It is only for people who are staying within the city limits longer than 24 hours. It doesn’t apply to anyone who is passing through. My son is coming back from California in August. I’ll pick him up at Midway and we’ll head home to Indiana. No quarantine.
I would imagine all these shutdown sates will be talking tax increases once all this is over to recoup their loses, which will only cause more businesses to close and make it worse.
I’m from Texas, and I don’t need some asswipe from Chicago to tell me not to go to Shitcago - believe me, I have no desire to go to there in the first place.
Chicago looks pretty good, I might add, in my rear view mirror.
either way libtards win
they either control and restrict your travel
or they control and restrict you by faux quarrantine reasons
Darn...I was hoping to go to Chitown for some looting and shooting. There go my summer vacation plans, all shot to hell.
No.
Two weeks at the Trump Hotel at the expense of the city sounds good.
Do other states enact quarantines on Chicago for being the murder capital of Earth?
Regulating interstate commerce? Where’s the ACLU?
What? You expect food? They wall you in and forget you. But you’ll have cable TV.
Crazy.
Chicago was a hot spot.
It I s the one that ought to have been quarantined,baling with New York, Boston, Detroit.
In the mid-’80s, my boss and I went to Chicago on a business trip. Stayed at McCormick Place overlooking Soldier’s Field and the lake.
Mid afternoon, after business, we went to (then) Sears Tower and the observation deck. Very good.
Then walked the streets to a German restaurant that was below ground and had an early dinner.
Walking the mile or so back to the hotel after dark, a taxi pulled over to the curb by us. The black cabbie said he would take us wherever we were going because it was dangerous for us two white guys to be on the street after dark. He drove us to the hotel and we were grateful.
Chicago today isn’t even safe for black folks, much less whites. I don’t know why anyone would want to go there.
HUH? TX and FL do NOT have a higher death rate than NY.
