Persons Under Investigation (PUI) for COVID-19 Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Illinois Test Results Positive (Confirmed) 288 Deaths 1 Total Tested 2052 Information regarding the number of persons under investigation updated on March 18, 2020. Information to be updated Daily. COVID-19 Illinois Positive Cases Stephenson0 Positive (confirmed)288Deaths1 Positive (confirmed)Deaths The Illinois Department of Public Health, local health departments, and public health partners throughout Illinois, and federal agencies, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), are responding to an outbreak of respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus called COVID-19 that was first identified in December 2019 during an outbreak in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has spread throughout the world, including the United States, since it was detected and was declared a public health emergency for the U.S. on January 31, 2020 to aid the nation’s healthcare community in responding to the threat. The World Health Organization announced March 11, 2020 that the spread of coronavirus qualifies as a global pandemic. In addition, Gov. JB Pritzker issued a disaster proclamation March 9, 2020 regarding COVID-19 that gives the state access to federal and state resources to combat the spread of this newly emerged virus. The first case of COVID-19 in the United States was reported January 21, 2020 and the first confirmed case in Illinois was announced January 24, 2020 (a Chicago resident). The first cases outside Chicago and Cook County were reported March 11, 2020 in Kane and McHenry counties. The current count of cases of COVID-19 in the United States is available on the CDC webpage at www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-in-us.html. Illinois case totals and test results are listed below. Person-to-person spread of COVID-19 appears to be mainly between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet) through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. It also may be possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes. Signs and symptoms of COVID-19 include fever, cough, and shortness of breath. Preliminary data suggest older adults and people with underlying health conditions or compromised immune systems seems to be at greater risk of developing serious illness from the virus. If you are sick and have respiratory symptoms, such as fever, cough, and shortness of breath, stay home unless you need medical attention. Remain in your home until you feel better and have no symptoms. Keep in mind there is no treatment for COVID-19 and people who are mildly ill can isolate at home. While at home, as much as possible, stay in a specific room and away from other people. Those who need medical attention should contact their health care provider who will evaluate whether they can be cared for at home or need to be hospitalized. This is a rapidly evolving situation and information will be updated as needed here and on the CDC website at cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html.

Additional COVID-19 Case Connected to Long Term Care Facility in Larimer County Tuesday, March 17, 2020 Contact: Katie O'Donnell, Larimer County, 970-646-1756, [email protected] Yvonne Myers, Columbine Health Systems - 970-800-1785 Date: March 17, 2020 Larimer County, CO --- Larimer County Department of Health and Environment (LCDHE) has identified a positive COVID-19 case in a resident of a Long Term Care facility. The facility also has a staff person who tested positive for COVID-19. Due to the high-risk nature of residents in the facility, a team of infection preventionists and epidemiologists from CDC and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) have been working closely with LCDHE and providing on-site technical assistance and support regarding case investigation, infection prevention, healthcare worker safety assessments, and personal protective equipment. The resident and the worker who tested positive live/work at the North Shore Health & Rehab Facility in Loveland. While local public health agencies typically don’t release names of facilities, Columbine Health Systems, which operates North Shore Health & Rehab, has volunteered to share that information to help protect public health and keep people safe. The case investigation is ongoing, but to date there are no other confirmed cases associated with residents of this facility. At least six other residents of the facility have been tested, and their test results were negative. Additional tests are pending. Case investigation is in process to identify people who have been in close contact with the individuals who tested positive so that public health workers can reach out to those contacts in the next few days. As with any communicable disease, this case investigation will take some time to complete. In order to protect the privacy of the individuals, identifying information and medical records will not be released to the public. “Columbine Health Systems has been a strong partner with local public health, state health and the CDC, doing everything they can to reduce the spread of this virus.” says Tom Gonzales, MPH, Larimer County Public Health Director. “We continue to follow guidance from the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment, in partnership with the CDC and their infection control guidelines regarding COVID 19 testing and isolation procedures. Their knowledge and support has been invaluable to us,” said Dr. Rebecca Jackson, DO, CMD, Medical Director, Columbine Health Systems. COVID-19 is spread like the flu. You can help slow the spread of viruses by: increasing distance between people to six feet to help reduce spread, considering canceling trips and not attending public gatherings, washing hands frequently with soap and water, covering coughs and sneezes, staying home when sick, and avoiding close contact with anyone who has cold or flu-like symptoms. Information about COVID-19 is constantly changing, and the public health response adjusts as more is learned about this virus. While there is plenty of news and media information available, LCDHE is encouraging Larimer County residents to view the latest credible information on COVID-19 at www.larimer.org/coronavirus  or www.CDC.gov/coronavirus. Additionally, residents are encouraged to follow LCDHE’s Facebook and Twitter accounts at @LarimerHealth. https://covid19.colorado.gov/press-release/additional-covid-19-case-connected-long-term-care-facility-larimer-county
