The state of Wisconsin thanks you for doing what you can to slow the spread of COVID-19 to a crawl. Out of 112 tests, the Door County Public Health Department announced 18 new positive cases of COVID-19 since its last update on Monday. One new hospitalization was the only blemish on the update which has seen a steady decline of new cases since hitting an all-time high. Door County Medical Center President and CEO Brian Stephens says they are finally seeing the relief on the front lines.

The Wisconsin Department of Health Services said Thursday that its seven-day average for new cases of COVID-19 was under 1,500 cases. Seventy-one of the state’s 72 counties, including Door and Kewaunee counties, are at the very high level for disease activity, a near flip of what it was just a couple of days ago when 56 counties were at the critically high level.
