Wisconsin makes progress vs COVID for January. So of course, WisGOP wants to screw it up!

On the COVID front, January showed a some good progress in Wisconsin. The month ended with weekly cases falling below 10,000 for the first time in months.

Deaths and the rate of positive tests are also trending down, although still at levels well above what we had in Summer.

At the same time, the number of vaccinations went up, as we seem to be making progress on getting doses into the arms of Wisconsinites, even if the amount of doses are limited. In fact, the Wisconsin Department of Health Services reports over 187,000 Wisconsinites received a vaccine last week.

So as we finally seem to be going the right way in the fight against COVID, naturally this is the time that the Wisconsin GOP feels we should stand down against the virus.

The count of health care and other groups registered to lobby against removing WI's mask mandate has grown to 47.

Still zero in favor.

Speaker Vos said next week the Assembly will overturn @GovEvers #masks mandate. https://t.co/0FheUsaRvT pic.twitter.com/Vb0eWx7V6F

These guys really don't want things to get better. They only care about the Bubble World of BS that exists on AM Radio.
