Several downstate police chiefs and sheriff’s are using the recent police reform bill to cover them retiring or not running for re-election. Is this happening in central/northern Illinois as well? If you quit that job after the police reform bill, it probably means that you were not a good officer anyways. Same with the education cultural trainings (I am a teacher). If you quit because those are enacted, you were not a good teacher in the first place.

What exactly is their issue with the new maps? Too much packing or not enough? Current IL House is currently a little weird on the VRA racial gerrymandering front because because several of the >50% Latino district seats are held by non-Latinos, not sure what the new map does to that.

The Latinx population in the state has increased by 50% but the number of districts in the new map has barely increased. The LPF doesn't care but progressives are also at risk - Delia Ramirez, Aaron Ortiz and Will Guzzardi (white but well respected) all got their districts hosed with.

Performative gun usage comes to the Illinois Governor race. This feels like it is a decade old schtick with the ACA. I am so excited for this poo poo to continue for another year. I am guessing that the desperate performances will increase as competition comes in during the primary. https://fb.watch/5XtaVlxScB/

Illinois is doing a vaccine lottery. $10 million dollars give out over several weeks. Prizes range from $100,000 to $1 million. Prizes begin being won on July 8th. If you have gotten the vaccine, you do not have to do anything. You are automatically entered.

We're still sitting at only 36% vaccinated down here in Jackson County, so if it encourages some people to get the shot, great! I wonder who is responsible for collating all the various injection sites and such. Around here, for example, you could get them at the university, at the local CVS, and at the hospital, at various times.

There’s a statewide database of some kind. When I went to see my doctor I told her I got vaccinated and she was like “oh yeah I already looked you up.” So I assume they just enter it into a central state form when they give you the shot.

My mom still refuses to get vaccinated despite all the perks you can get so I'm going to have to threaten to cut off contact again. She's a nurse. She should know better.

We’ve run the gamut of family and friends who have refused the vaccine. From the understandable (“my doctor says not to. I had COVID previously”), to the less so (“it’s my body and my choice not to.”), to the downright hurtful (“I’m alright with whatever comes my way.”). No rhyme or reason to it either. Sucks all the same.

IDPH keeps these stats up to date. https://www.dph.illinois.gov/covid19/vaccinedata?county=Illinois These are the current numbers: 12+ 50.3% fully, 66.9% 1 dose 18+ 53.4% fully, 69.7% 1 dose 65+ 72.6% fully, 89% 1 dose There's two numbers, one for Illinoisans, and one for doses administered in Illinois. We're administering 40,000 doses per day on average right now.

I kind of hate how most of the numbers just look at adults, or even just 12+. I would like to see total population taken into consideration more often, especially considering we now know that kids can in fact spread this thing.

The site does say that 46.08% of the entire state population is fully vaccinated right now. We're about 500,000 people from getting to 50% fully vaccinated.

Thanks, sorry I should have been more clear. I've been able to find the numbers when I want them, but my annoyance is about how whenever these things are reported on for purposes of tracking progress, they always quote the adult numbers because they usually look better. I had thought phase 5 was going to be based on total population vaccine rate, but then everything started bragging how we were almost at 70% already and everything I was looking at still showed around 40%. It just felt like picking and choosing the number that looks good and saying, "Eh, gently caress it, that's good enough." Edit: I'm particularly annoyed about it because my workplace is preparing to make everyone come back to the office, and will let vaccinated employees go mask-free and eschew all the safety procedures, but will just go by honor system and aren't going to check vaccine status or anything even though we have chuds on the internal social media tool boasting about how they haven't gotten the shot.

I think they report 12+ because people younger than that can't get vaccinated "Of the people who can get the vaccine, who has it" is a useful statistic

Illinois COVID cases are super low right now though. The vaccines even at 50% level are hugely effective. Yesterday we had like 100 new cases. The CDC has said that if you’re vaccinated, you’re pretty much back to normal except in hospitals and a couple of other high risk areas. If you’re vaccinated, I would not be concerned about getting sick, or even transmitting it to someone else.

It's my kids that I'm worried about, who can't get vaccinated yet until the under-12 vaccine comes out. My workplace opening up means that they're trying to also require parents to get daycare now even when you're working from home, and I'm pretty uncomfortable - even with how low the numbers are - with sending them back to daycare around a bunch of other unvaccinated kids where I don't know whether the parents have gotten the shot. I'm concerned about another spike occurring because it feels like everyone is treating as go-time, when slightly more than half the population still hasn't been vaccinated. We're not at herd immunity levels yet, and I am surrounded by chuds at work and around my town.

They should have just tied vaccination to the stimulus. Although if it gets some people off their rear end it's worth it.
