Description

Press release from Sen. Fine: Jan. 25, 2021 To update Cook County residents on the ongoing COVID-19 vaccine distribution effort and dispel myths about the virus and the vaccine, State Senator Laura Fine (D-Glenview) will join local elected officials for a virtual town hall meeting Tuesday, Feb. 2 at 7 p.m. via Zoom. "The vaccine distribution process is underway, and many residents have questions about how, where and when they can get a vaccine," Senator Fine said. "It's critical that everyone has accurate, up-to-date information when making a plan to get vaccinated." Senator Fine has partnered with a number of Cook County elected officials to host the event, including Commissioners Scott Britton, Larry Suffredin and Pete Silvestri; and State Representatives Robyn Gabel (D-Evanston) and Jennifer Gong-Gershowitz (D-Glenview).The discussion will center on the COVID-19 vaccine rollout in Cook County. The event is not intended for Cook County residents who live in Chicago, Evanston or Skokie, as these municipalities each maintain their own department of public health and have an independent vaccine distribution plan. The free town hall will be streamed live via Zoom, and registration is required to join.
