No, the COVID-19 resurgence mitigations for Regions 7 and 8 taking effect on October 23, 2020, do not apply to banks and will not affect bank lobbies or require lobby closures. The resurgence mitigations are being implemented under the state’s Restore Illinois Resurgence Plan, and they apply only to bars, restaurants, and meetings, social events, and gatherings.
