It’s the latest milestone in Wisconsin’s battle with the coronavirus.
The state’s Department of Health Services says over eight-thousand people have now died from or with the virus. Wisconsin topped eight-thousand deaths last Thursday. Since April of 2020, just three people under 19-years old have died from or with the virus.
DHS says over 90-percent of coronavirus deaths are among people 60-plus. Over three-thousand of Wisconsin’s coronavirus deaths have come in nursing homes or other long-term care facilities.
