Nineteen counties across Wisconsin now have high levels of coronavirus activity. The state health department now has an online dashboard that shows the risk level for every county in the state, with the darkest shades showing where there is the highest current risk. As you can see, central Wisconsin from Green Bay to Eau Claire is at the highest level along with most of southern Wisconsin. The map is updated each Wednesday. More than 25,000 people have tested positive in Wisconsin and more than 760 have died.

We are seeing in a few communities around the state community spread that is not linked to a specific outbreak, which suggests to us that that is the result of reduced social distancing, reduced adherence to these good public health practices that we’ve been talking about since the beginning of the response. And so we certainly, as usual, would encourage folks to be vigilant about keeping themselves safe, practicing physical distancing, remaining home as much as you can to reduce and prevent the spread.
