• In a news conference U.S. Rep. Ron Kind (D–La Crosse) called on Gov. Tony Evers to "work with political leadership on both sides" of the Legislature to come up with comprehensive plans for testing, contact tracing and treatment in the wake of the state Supreme Court's invaliding the Safer at Home order. Kind said the decision "does not turn Wisconsin into the wild wild West," but added that the coronavirus is "still here, still very dangerous, and still very deadly." Kind said the situation calls for "political unity instead of partisanship." Kind also called upon the Trump administration to create a "national strategy for comprehensive testing" to stop the "bidding war" for personal protective equipment and testing supplies, as well as to "lift restrictions on the CDC and issuing more guidance" on best practices for reopening businesses.

MAY 13 UPDATE:

• The state Supreme Court struck down 4–3 the Department of Health Services Safer at Home order as "unlawful, invalid, and unenforceable" ordering people to stay in their homes, curtailing travel and ordering the closing of businesses exceeded the authority state statutes allow. The court also says Safer at Home was not an order but a rule, which requires it to go through the rulemaking process, including legislative committee approval.

• Grant County news release:

Grant County Board Chairman Robert Keeney is asking residents of Grant County to immediately limit their travel and as much in-person contact as possible to help reduce the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

“Even though, as of now, we still have only one confirmed case of COVID-19 here in Grant County, it is safe to assume that there are more cases in our communities that have not been tested or confirmed," said Keeney. "I ask that residents stay at home, only leaving for essentials such as groceries, medications or for medical appointments. We cannot let our guard down and must continue to follow the Safer At Home order issued by Governor Evers. Protecting our residents is our number one priority and we need you to help us by staying at home.”

“This disease is being spread effectively by people with mild illness and even by those without any symptoms,” said Jeff Kindrai, Grant County Health Department Director/Health Officer. “Therefore, you should assume that you may be exposed if around others and you may be spreading it yourself without knowing."

“Unfortunately we have not seen the worst of this yet," said Keeney. "Based on the increase in confirmed cases in other counties across the state of Wisconsin, and the deaths thus far, it will get worse before it gets better. I’m asking that every one of you take this seriously, and consider our vulnerable populations and our limited number of emergency responders and medical personnel before you leave your home. We are all in this together, and together we will be stronger."
