COVID-19 Update
Dear Neighbor,
In order to support your families being able to take a deep breath, turn away from constant news updates, and create a new temporary normal, my office will continue posting a near-daily update on the COVID-19 public health emergency to our website and on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
It is my hope that one reliable update each day will allow you to take a deep breath, oversee all that is happening in your own life and home, and have a reliable source of news you can count on to be up to date and accurate. As always, previous updates are on our website and linked beneath the graphic below.
My greatest concerns right now are your lives and livelihoods. We are working hard to keep you and your loved ones safe, and to fight for our small businesses in an unprecedented crisis.
In solidarity,
Rep. Robyn Vining

DHS Update: Local COVID-19 Data Dashboard
The Wisconsin Department of Health Services launched a new data dashboard today to show information about the status of COVID-19 in local communities.
The data dashboard consists of maps and tables that shows both counties and Healthcare Emergency Readiness Coalition (HERC) regions. The counties and HERC regions are color-coded to indicate overall COVID-19 activity status: low, medium, or high.
Currently, Waukesha County has a "Medium" COVID-19 activity level, and Milwaukee County has a "High" COVID-19 activity level. HERC Region Southeast has a "High" COVID-19 activity level.
Access the dashboard HERE, and read the full announcement HERE for more information.
