State health officials say 507 new COVID-19 cases were reported Monday or 6.2 percent of the 8,167 test results that came back. Ideally the state would like to see the percentage of positive test results below 5 percent and if it is at 3 percent daily that’s an indication the coronavirus spread is coming under control. Twice last week it was below 5 percent. Since the first case in February 61,106 residents in Wisconsin have tested positive for the virus with 9,383 active cases. The state death toll due to the pandemic is at 998 with one new death reported yesterday.
