Chicago warns ballparks may close if coronavirus numbers continue to climb | WGN-TV

I really wonder if some States will ever be able to turn this off. Cases naturally fluctuate, but it seems some places are intent on placing the blame on the population, and, in this case, threatening to punish them directly.

Any rumblings about when Lori and JB will take the next step and impose curfews and closures? If partial mitigations are good...

maybe because vaccinated people are shedding the live virus scientifically called "L452", a.k.a the Delta Variant.

Chicago schools cancel classes again as fight with teachers over Covid hits second week (nbcnews.com)

The Chicago Teachers Union is holding a "day of action" on Monday after weekend negotiations failed to produce an agreement over Covid-19 safety protocols.

Chicago school leaders canceled classes for the fourth consecutive day on Monday as a standoff with the local teachers' union over remote learning and other Covid-19 safety protocols entered its second week.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot said on Sunday that weekend negotiations had failed to produce an agreement, meaning classes would be canceled on Monday...

The development comes after the union accused the city of failing to do enough to ensure that students and teachers could return to school safely in the midst of rising Covid cases.
