CHICAGO – This is the first weekend since March that Governor J.B. Pritzker will not give his daily briefing on Illinois’s response to Covid-19. Pritzker said on Thursday that the streak of daily briefings will end on Friday, May 8th. Friday was Pritzker’s 61st straight briefing, with the vast majority occurring in Chicago, to the criticism of some downstaters. Though Covid-19 data will be released on the weekend, the daily briefing will take place only on the weekdays going forward, the governor says.
