Masks Still Important Tool In Stopping COVID-19

The Wisconsin Supreme Court overturned Governor Tony Evers most recent COVID-19 Emergency Order. The Emergency Order would’ve extended the statewide mask mandate. Jackson County Public Health says that even though the emergency order was overturned, you should still wear a mask as an attempt to stop the spread of COVID-19 until enough people are vaccinated. To date, less than 30% of Jackson County residents have received one dose of the vaccine, while less than 20% have been fully vaccinated. If you wish to get the COVID-19 vaccine, you can call the Jackson County Health Department at 715-284-3970 to schedule an appointment.
