Summary:
- State now meets three of the six gating criteria in the Badger Bounce Back Plan guiding us towards Phase #1 of the plan.
- 3,069 new test results, which is below average compared to the number of new tests in the last week (4,203 average)
- 199 new confirmed cases; a total of 10,418 cases statewide
- Nine new deaths for a total of 409 deaths; 3.9 percent of known cases result in death
- 340 cases are hospitalized; this is up from 332 yesterday; 17.7 percent of known cases result in hospitalization
- 180 of hospitalized cases are awaiting results
- 116 of cases are in ICU; this is up from yesterday's ICU cases of 113; 4.4 percent of known cases result in ICU
The state is now meeting three of the six gating criteria the Wisconsin Department of Health Services is using as a guide to move into the next phase of the Badger Bounce Back Plan. The latest criteria that is met, at least for now, is the downward trajectory of positive tests as a percent of total tests.
The three criteria that are currently met are related to the capacity of the health care system and the amount of testing capacity. The three criteria that are not met are related to the number of people showing symptoms in the general public and among health care workers.

Earlier today, Gov. Evers announced that standalone retail stores and shops located in strip malls are now allowed to reopen with up to five customers in-store, while still keeping social distancing practices.
Also today, two free pop-up COVID-19 testing centers have opened up in Milwaukee County at Midtown Center (5760 W. Capitol Dr.) and UMOS (2701 S. Chase Ave.). Both locations will be open from 8 a.m.-8 p.m. daily until they are no longer needed. In press briefing on Monday afternoon, City of Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett said each testing site had administered at or near 400 tests each and anticipated administering over 500 tests on the first day they were open.
Daily DHS Data

3,069 new test results came back in the last 24 hours. This is down 27 percent from the average number of tests returned in the last week (4,203 tests daily). It's important to note the testing goal of 85,000 tests per week is a capacity goal, not a utilization goal.

The percent of positive test results in the last 24 hours was 6.5 percent, which is down from yesterday. DHS is tracking this for a 14-day downward trajectory. That gating criteria is now met as part of the Badger Bounce Back Plan.
