During remarks on Tuesday, Mayor Lori Lightfoot, a Democrat, said that for those who remain unvaccinated, "it's time for a change. If you wish to live life as normally as possible ... you must be vaccinated in the city of Chicago starting January 3rd. This health order may pose an inconvenience to the unvaccinated," she said, adding that it "is inconvenient by design."
This order will remain in effect until the City deems that the threat of COVID-19 to public health has diminished significantly.
