Approximately 400 tests were administered at the community COVID-19 testing site over the last three days in Sturgeon Bay. A joint effort between the Wisconsin National Guard and Door and Kewaunee Counties, the operation took place in the parking lot of the Door County Justice Center for approximately eight hours a day with volunteers helping direct traffic to testers. Door County Emergency Management Director Daniel Kane says they had the capacity to handle 400 tests per day, but he was still happy with the response.
Kane says this will help the public health departments in Door and Kewaunee Counties get a gauge on who may have COVID-19 and aid them in their contact tracing efforts. He also thanked volunteers for their time and their willingness to work despite the heat.
Neither Door nor Kewaunee County reported any new confirmed cases on Friday. The updated numbers are posted below.
