New York Times, 10/2/22020
When coronavirus cases began to spike in Wisconsin this fall, Rob Swearingen kept his restaurant open and let customers and employees decide whether they wanted to wear masks.
Mr. Swearingen, a Republican seeking his fifth term in the Wisconsin State Assembly, didn’t require other employees at his restaurant in Rhinelander to be tested after a waitress and a bartender contracted the virus because, he said, nobody from the local health department suggested it was necessary.
From March 27 until September 30, Chippewa County reported a total of 490 coronavirus cases, an average of 2-3 new cases per day.
Since September 30, the county has reported an additional 797 cases, bringing the total to 1,295, an increase of 165%. Daily average during this period is 27 new cases per day.
