  • State database reveals details of Covid-19 outbreaks in Champaign County

    Previously confidential statewide data tracking coronavirus cases across Illinois shows that there have been at least 50 different outbreaks in Champaign County traced to restaurants, stores, churches, nursing homes, hospitals and in a county office.  The internal database kept by the Illinois Department of Public Health has tracked case counts for nearly 2,600 separate outbreaks across Illinois.  The database was obtained by the Documenting COVID-19 project at Columbia University’s Brown Institute for Media Innovation and the Midwest Center for Investigative Reporting as part of a Freedom of Information Act request. The Midwest Center, which shares stories with CU-CitizenAccess.org, published it Wednesday.

    Eight-term Illinois Congressman Daniel Lipinski, who lost his seat in this year’s primary, gave more than $17,000 in campaign money to Catholic schools and churches over the past four years.  While the donations comprise a small amount of his overall campaign expenses, they emphasize his support of the pro-life movement and his religion. The donations are legal because Lipinski’s campaign money is technically a private fund, said political science doctor Kent Redfield.
