It may appear ​to be business as usual in downtown Chicago, but the city is about to undergo a tightening of restrictions.

Although stopping short of a mandatory stay-at-home order, the Chicago Mayor, Lori Lightfoot issued a stay-at-home advisory.

It encourages residents not to leave their homes except to work, attend school and shop for groceries. Those who do go out are encouraged to wear a mask at all times.   

But Lightfoot says those measures may still not be enough with a mandatory order a potential next step.
