Three-quarters of Door County residents tested for COVID-19 since Tuesday have contracted the virus according to the public health department’s Thursday situation update.
Of the 262 tests performed, 198 of them came back positive for COVID-19 with another seven cases listed as probable. Despite nearly 400 positive tests announced this week in Door County, only four have resulted in hospitalizations and none have resulted in deaths. Hospitalization and death data reported does lag locally due to the state’s reporting.
The Door County Public Health Department is determining additional dates for vaccine clinics this month after it hosts them at the Sister Bay/Liberty Grove Fire Department on Thursday from 2-5 p.m. and the Door County Government Center on December 13th from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. Those clinics are available by appointment and for people ages 12 and up.
