Wisconsin is reporting 7,777 new COVID-19 cases Friday.
That’s a new daily record and it puts the state over the 300,000 mark for total COVID-19 cases.
It took Wisconsin seven months to get to 100,000 cases, 36 days to get to the next 100,000, and only 18 days to reach the latest 100,000.
Another 58 deaths were reported Friday. More than 2,500 Wisconsinites have died since the start of the pandemic. That number is expected to double before the end of the year if nothing changes.
All counties in the Northwoods fall under the “Critically High” COVID-19 activity level.
Earlier this week, Governor Tony Evers issued an executive order advising people to stay home.
