New positive cases of COVID-19 continue to surge in Wisconsin. The state reported 349 new confirmed cases Monday. That's the most new cases in a seven-day stretch in Wisconsin since May. The seven-day average has been rising for 20 straight days. But those numbers may not tell the whole story. Health officials said a decline in testing numbers are a concern. Wisconsin is seeing a bad combination: new positive COVID-19 cases and testing numbers are both heading in the wrong direction. "We don't want to see a rise in cases and a decrease in testing ability," said Dr. Jeff Pothof of UW Health. "That starts to blind us a little bit as to what's going on in the state." Spurred by a surge in the delta variant, COVID-19 cases have reached their highest level in more than two months.
