Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker plans to issue a “shelter in place” for the entire state amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, according to a report.
The Chicago Tribune says the order will go into effect starting Saturday, and will demand residents to stay in their homes to help curb the spread of the virus.
According to the report, residents will still be able to take care of essential tasks, such as going to the grocery store, gas stations, and pharmacies, as well as take walks outdoors. Roads and highways will also remain open to traffic.
