Wednesday COVID-19 numbers include 81 deaths and 3,619 cases

December 9, 2020 By Bob Hague

Wisconsin reported 81 additional deaths due to COVID-19 on Wednesday. That brings the statewide death toll to 3,887 since the start of the pandemic.

The state Department of Health Services reported a slightly decreased seven-day average of daily deaths at 55, which is 15 more daily deaths than one month ago.

Today’s #COVID19_WI update and while 19 counties show a growing trajectory, another 10 show the percent case change shrinking. Thank you for doing your part to #StopTheSpread. Please continue to protect yourself and your community: https://t.co/R46klg8nRD pic.twitter.com/FTWetTjTaL
