180 COVID-19 cases linked to Illinois church camp and conference: CDC

Scores of COVID-19 cases were linked to a mid-June Illinois church camp and separate conference that did not require its attendees to be vaccinated or undergo testing, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) research.
The CDC and Illinois Department of Public Health documented 180 confirmed and probable COVID-19 cases among attendees at the five-day overnight camp for teenagers and two-day conference as well as their close contacts, as of Aug. 13.
The outbreak that stemmed from these events impacted a total of 1,127 people from at least four states and 18 counties who either attended the camp and/or conference or contracted the disease through a close contact with someone who did.
Out of the 122 "primary" cases, meaning those who were infected after attending the camp and conference, 104 infections (85 percent) occurred among unvaccinated individuals. But 18 fully vaccinated people were considered infected, and eight of the 38 close contacts of these fully vaccinated people contracted the virus.
Five people with related COVID-19 cases were hospitalized, with 13 seeking emergency department care. No deaths were recorded.
None of the fully vaccinated people who caught the virus were hospitalized, although three sought emergency department care.
The outbreak supports health officials’ warnings about the risks of attending large public events when not all people are fully vaccinated and precautions such as masking and testing are not in place.
The church organization that ran the events has locations in western Illinois, Iowa and Missouri. It held the camp from June 13-17 that 294 campers and 41 staff members attended.
