It has been approximately one month the last time someone in Door County has either died or has been hospitalized for COVID-19.
Hospitalizations remained at a total of 240 and deaths stayed at a total of 61 according to Door County Public Health Department data released on Monday. That marks the fourth straight week those numbers have not fluctuated. The county did see seven new cases of COVID-19 pop up over the last week out of 95 tested. One case is considered to be probable.
The report comes as the Wisconsin Department of Health Services announced on Friday that the seven-day average of new COVID-19 cases reached 895. That is up over 200 from where it was on Monday. Door County remained in the low category for COVID-19 community level, but three counties did tick up to the medium range. The good news is despite the increase in cases, the seven-day average for COVID-19-related deaths ticked down to two. DHS will update those numbers this afternoon.
