Mayor Deborah Feinen of Champaign, Illinois had declared a state of emergency is now in effect in the city of nearly 90,000 people. While the city or even Central Illinois doesn't have a single case of the Corona Virus, Mayor Feinen has preemptively declared the state of emergency. Her office also released a list of possible emergency actions that she is now legally allowed to take.

As word spread through Champaign that these options were now on the table, people started to get upset. Of course, a bureaucrat in a suit tried to calm everybody down by saying that they aren't necessarily going to do any of those things.

"The executive order allows the city to be flexible to properly respond to the emergency needs of our community. None of the options will necessarily will be implemented but are available in order to protect the welfare and safety of our community if needed," Jeff Hamilton the City of Champaign's Communications Manger.
