Fuck. Another Covid record day. 2035

https://madison365.com/wisconsin-confirms-more-than-2000-cases-for-the-first-time-positive-test-rate-jumps-to-17-7/

For the first time, Wisconsin has confirmed more than 2,000 new coronavirus cases in a single day.

Wisconsin’s positive test rate jumped to 17.7 percent Thursday, rising from 11.5 percent Wednesday as about 11,400 tests yielded 2,034 positive results. Those results bring the total case count to 94,746, of which just over 10,800 are considered active, about 300 more than yesterday.

Today is the 13th day of the past 14 that the positive test rate has been over 10 percent.

Wisconsin’s positive test rate for the past seven days is now 15.12 percent, and the 14-day rate is up to 14.53 percent. Today’s data brings the seven-day average of new cases to 1,409 and the 14-day average to 1,184.

But by all means, lets start Badger football! All the businesses on Regent Street are just glowing over all the business they will have. What could possibly go wrong?

Stupid is now in control,all common sense has been drowned. Had a call from our Niece in South West Minnesota a few minutes ago. Two Counties just closed their Schools this morning because of a Covid outbreak among their Students. BTW,these Counties are Trumper all the way every day and knowing the area well,this is a Reality Check big time.

BTW,Casino in that area only has one Chef on staff today,all the others called out to take care of their Kids who would be in School,instead are home. No Servers,no line Cooks.
