For total case counts, hospitalizations, deaths, general vaccination rates, transmission levels, and regional metrics, you can see that on our COVID19 page (should be updated by end of business day): https://vchd.org/covid-19/
IDPH has fixed the problem on their Regional Metrics site. You may still have to update any shortcuts or links you have saved for certain COVID19 pages as I continue to find more changes.
