State-wide Wisconsin is suffering badly from the pandemic. Today's numbers how a record number of hospitalizations (318) and the highest reported one-day number of deaths (92). 2274 people are currently hospitalized with the virus, with 456 people in intensive care. These are both new records.

In response to the quickly-worsening situation, Dane County today took drastic measures, banning all indoor gatherings until Dec. 16, and imposing stiff ($1000/violation) fines. That Thanksgiving Dinner for the family in Dane County could become very expensive indeed.
