COVID-19 Cases By the Numbers
in Cook and Lake Counties
Over the last week, the Lake County Health Department and Community Health Center , and the Cook County Health Department have published the number (or a range of numbers) relating to positive COVID-19 cases in Buffalo Grove. The Village relies on data provided by both health departments in order to remain updated, as well as to provide ongoing updates to our residents. ( Links to both pages can be found by clicking on the bolded blue names above ).

As of today, Lake County continues to report there are <5 positive cases among our residents living on the Lake County side of the Village (a number which has remained consistent since Friday, March 27, 2020), while Cook County has reported there are 23 positive COVID-19 cases for Cook County Buffalo Grove residents (this number has nearly doubled from 12 positive cases reported Thursday, March 26, 2020). This information confirms we must all remain diligent in following the Stay at Home order, and to practice safe social distancing when out in the community to purchase groceries, home necessities, prescriptions and other essential products and services.
