Illinois’ top public health doctor says if you went to a Super Bowl party last weekend, it's a good idea to get tested for COVID-19.
Illinois public health director Dr. Ngozi Ezike says for those who attended a gathering for the big game, now is the time to get tested if you haven't already.

"Don't say because I haven't any symptoms that means I don't need to get tested. We know that nearly half of the people can be infectious and not show a single symptom. So, please do the responsible thing and get tested proactively."
