The McLean County Health Department announced no new COVID-19 cases on Monday.

The McLean County Health Department has 241 confirmed coronavirus cases. Monday marks the second consecutive day the county hasn’t had any additional cases.

Nearly 90% of the county’s COVID-19 patients have recovered, while 14 people remain in isolation. The county hasn’t had any COVID-19 hospitalizations in the past week. Thirteen patients have died.

According to the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH), McLean County has surpassed 10,000 COVID-19 tests conducted. That makes up about 6% of the county’s population. Illinois is approaching 1.2 million tests administered.

The county's COVID-19 positivity rate is 2.3%, down from 2.6% last week, according to the McLean County Health Department. 

COVID-19 testing continues daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Interstate Center in Bloomington.

All four regions of the state are seeing improved health metrics in recent weeks that would enable them to move to Phase 4 of the Restore Illinois plan on June 26. Phase 4 allows for gatherings of up to 50 people, and allows schools, child care centers, bars and restaurants to reopen.
