COVID numbers in the county continue to rise

At the Monday meeting of the Wright County Board of Supervisors, in her weekly update from the Emergency Operations Center on COVID-19, Sandy McGrath said numbers of positive cases are still “steadily going up” in the county. As of Monday, the case count stands at 660, up from 616 last Monday. McGrath said the cases are widespread across the county and not necessarily traced to a single event or location. She added that the positive testing for the county schools stands at 13.3% which keeps them in the same category of alertness. This would change should the positives reach 15%.
