Wisconsin COVID-19 deaths reach 300

April 28, 2020 By Bob Hague

Wisconsin’s reported COVID-19 deaths on Tuesday increased by 19 since Monday. That’s the largest one-day increase since April 4, and brings total statewide deaths to 300.

One of those deaths was in Brown County, where the state’s fastest-growing coronavirus outbreak is linked to three meatpacking plants. Wisconsin Department of Health Services numbers also include the first death from Monroe County.

An additional 19 #COVID19_WI deaths to report since yesterday, bringing the total in our state to 300. One of those is from Monroe County, and that is the first death in that county.
