In DHS’ latest weekly update, Forest Co. and Menominee Co. became the first counties to drop into the Low category for case activity. The former tallied a case on March 13 – and that was the only one this month – while Menominee last saw an official positive test on March 15. The drop from Medium to Low marked a new milestone in tracking the crashing number of positive tests recorded in the state. In January, every Wisconsin county was two categories beyond High, surpassing the Critically High threshold, often several times over.

Oh, well.
