District 67 Weekly COVID-19 Dashboard Update
The District 67 COVID-19 Dashboard has been updated for the week as of April 5, 2021, to reflect the latest information from our schools and local health departments.  Our internal metrics remain positive following Spring Break despite the numbers rising throughout Lake County

As of April 8th, the incidence rate for Lake County was 14.54 per 100,000 residents. The incidence rate for the 60045 zip code was 8.11 per 100,000 residents. As of April 5, the seven-day rolling average for Lake County from the CDC for new cases is 122.46 per 100,000, and the test positivity rate was 3.81 percent. The youth incidence rates for children in Lake County show a small decline across all age groups under 18, with percentages ranging from 4.85 to 11.91 percent.
