MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The Wisconsin Department of Health Services reports that the number of deaths attributed to the coronavirus in Wisconsin is up to 77. That is an increase of nine people from Sunday. There have now been deaths reported in 16 counties. More than half of all deaths, 40, have occurred in Milwaukee County. As of Monday, there were 2,440 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Wisconsin. Dr. Ryan Westergaard, Wisconsin’s chief medical officer for communicable diseases, said some modeling shows Wisconsin should hit its peak in cases around May 1, but that’s still just a best guess. There are now 44 positive cases in Fond du Lac County.
