In Wisconsin, Covid cases are spiking in Rock County and hospitals are overwhelmed

 

 In Rock County (pop. 163,687), the number of new Covid cases increased more than 67% in the past week.  And the county has already 624 cases this week.  Weekend numbers are likely to raise it above 800.


WI Department of Health Services

65% of Rock County residents are fully vaccinated compared to 61% statewide.

Rock County set a new record for highest 7-day average of new Covid cases on December 16, 2021.  That average of 2 cases in late June and early July probably seems like a mirage now.
