In today's Wisconsin Department of Health Services' daily report on COVID-19, there are 198 new confirmed cases for a total of 12,885 cases statewide. DHS reported the loss of eight additional lives to COVID-19, up to 467 total deaths.
There are reasons to be optimistic about today's data because the number of new cases has been below 200 for two days after spiking at 502 on May 16.
