All U.S. states and territories remain on the Chicago Department of Public Health’s COVID-19 Travel Advisory for the fifth consecutive week, the department announced on Tuesday, meaning that all unvaccinated travelers are asked to quarantine or get tested upon arrival to the city. States will be taken off the advisory as their average daily new COVID-19 caseloads fall below 15 per 100,000 residents. As of Tuesday, the average U.S. new daily caseload was 149.8 per 100,000, and Chicago’s average was 38.3, officials said.  

Kevin Bargnes joined the Chicago Department of Aviation this week as its new director of communications. Bargnes was previously an information coordinator for the Chicago Department of Planning and Development, a role he held since 2016.
