Tuesday COVID-19 numbers: record low positive percentage, 15 more deaths

June 9, 2020 By Bob Hague

The state set a record on Tuesday, for the percentage of positive new coronavirus tests. The total of 1.9 percent is encouraging, following on 2.7 percent Monday and 2.3 on Sunday.

The Wisconsin Department of Health Services reported 270 new confirmed cases out of more than 14,000 processed in the prior 24 hour period, bringing the state’s total to 21,308 confirmed cases, of which 68 percent have recovered.

All data are lab-confirmed cases of #COVID19 we pull from our surveillance system & freeze once a day. These numbers are the official state numbers, though counties may report their own totals.
