La Crosse nearing 22% inoculated, as county gets state’s 2nd COVID vaccination clinic

From zero COVID-19 cases Monday to 15 Tuesday for La Crosse County.

No cases in a day hadn’t happened since May 29. The county, however, is still averaging 8.6 cases a day over the past week. That number was 14.6.

Statewide, here’s how cases, hospitalizations and deaths looked Tuesday:

TUE.	Cases	Hospital	Deaths
Wis.	463	70	29
Minn.	1,641	97	140
Iowa	827	33	15

Of that data, 891 of Minnesota’s cases and 138 of those deaths were a result of data errors from months ago, officials said. The health department is looking into the four labs that failed to report the data to the state. They aren’t being named at this point because of investigations.
