The City of Chicago has issued a new public health order that requires a 14-day quarantine period for residents returning home and travelers arriving from the following states currently experiencing a surge in COVID-19 cases (Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Puerto Rico, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Wisconsin). This order, which takes effect at 12:01 a.m. on Monday, August 10, is similar to the one that was expanded this week in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. The list of states included in the order will be updated every Tuesday, and the order will be in effect until further notice. This does not impact travelers arriving to Chicago from any international destinations.
