ComEd TAKING STEPS TO SUPPORT CUSTOMERS
As of March 12, 2020, the Winnebago County Health Department Released the following announcement:
All public gatherings of 25 or more in the county are to be suspended indefinitely. All businesses are to remain open, (grocery stores, restaurants, etc). Schools are to remain open. Polling places will remain open, but the location at the Prairie View Assisted Living facility has been moved to the Winnebago Public Library out of concern for the elderly who are most susceptible to the virus.
