Public health officials confirm it – the vast majority of Wisconsin’s new COVID-19 cases come from people who are not fully vaccinated.
Department of Health Services communicable disease specialist Doctor Ryan Westergaard says more than 98 percent of the new cases involve people who didn’t take the important step.
Of more than 148,000 cases, less than 2,400d are so-called breakthrough cases involving those who are fully vaccinated, then test positive.
As of Thursday afternoon, just under 49 percent of Wisconsin’s population has been fully vaccinated.
