Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers continues to ask everyone to take the risks associated with the coronavirus seriously.
Evers told reporters Tuesday, “we are nine months into this pandemic, and right now it’s not slowing down, it’s picking up speed. We have go to put the brakes on this pandemic.”
The governor warns too many people are going about with daily activities as if there’s no cause for concern.
Evers says wearing a mask is not a substitute for social distancing, but is “the absolute least that we need you to do.”
