The Wisconsin Department of Health Services reports 180 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the state in the last 24 hour, up to 1,730 total cases.
1,678 new test results came in during the last 24 hours, meaning we have yet to see the expansion of testing announced earlier this week reflected in the data. A total of 22,047 tests have been performed so far, which means about 7.8% of tests have come back positive.
The data indicates an 11.6 percent increase in confirmed cases in the state since yesterday.
Starting yesterday, the state started adding hospitalization data to the report. There have been a total of 461 hospitalizations so far. This is an increase of 15.8 percent over yesterday.
DHS reports 31 deaths at this time. Local reports from across the state indicate a total of at least 33 deaths.
Two new counties have been added to the report: Adams and Trempealeau. As of today, 52 of the state's 72 counties have at least one case. Officials have indicated it's likely the disease has spread to the other 20 counties.
