The governor lifts the indoor mask mandate as COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations drop.
Gov. J.B. Pritzker today announced the indoor mask mandate for the state of Illinois will lift Feb. 28 if current COVID-19 trends keep up. But he says schools will have to wait a little longer, even as a recent court ruling overturning the mandate has caused confusion at districts statewide. Is this the right time to unmask?
