Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot on her January 3 vaccine requirement

We didn’t want it to get to this point, but given the situation we find ourselves in, we have no choice. 

Beginning Jan. 3, you must show proof you are fully vax'd to enter bars, restaurants, fitness centers, and entertainment/recreational venues where food/drink are served.

To put it simply, if you have been living vaccine-free, your time is up. If you wish to live life as w/the ease to do the things you love, you must be vax'd. 

This health order may pose an inconvenience to the unvaccinated, and in fact it is inconvenient by design.
