Oak Park, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, has implemented a shelter-in-place order for its residents, lasting from March 20 until at the minimum, April 3, in an attempt to curb the CCP virus.

The Epoch Times refers to the novel coronavirus, which causes the disease COVID-19, as the CCP virus because the Chinese Communist Party’s coverup and mismanagement allowed the virus to spread throughout China and create a global pandemic.
