PARTNERS AT WISCONTEXT.
THE PANDEMIC HAS CONTINUED FOR
ABOUT TEN MONTHS NOW, BUT THE
RATE OF NEW COVID-19 CASES IN
DIFFERENT PLACES AROUND
WISCONSIN HAS EBBED AND FLOWED
OVER THAT TIME.
>> CHARTS CREATED BY WISCONTEXT
SHOW A TIME LINE OF HOW THE RATE
OF CORONAVIRUS CASES GREW IN ALL
72 WISCONSIN COUNTIES ON A
DAY-BY-DAY BASIS.
STARTING IN LATE MARCH, WHEN
MULTIPLE CASES FIRST STARTED
BEING REPORTED, THESE GRAPHICS
ILLUSTRATE THE INITIAL SPRING
WAVE, THE MID-SUMMER SPIKE AND
THE SUSTAINED AUTUMN SURGE.
ONE GRAPHIC BREAKS IT DOWN BY
COUNTY POPULATION AND ANOTHER BY
THEIR CENSUS DATA AS URBAN,
RURAL OR IN BETWEEN.
A GRAPHIC SHOWING THE COURSE BY
AGE IS SIMILAR TO THE FIRST TWO.
ONE LOOKS AT GEE GEOGRAPHIC
PATTERNS.
ALL OF THESE CHARTS ARE
AVAILABLE AT wiscontext.org.
>> AND THAT IS OUR PROGRAM FOR
TONIGHT.
I'M FREDERICA FREYBERG.
