a thread on Hope Hicks and contact incubation time is hear, if anyone's interested in counting days:

5) We need a long discussion of Hope Hick and incubation time. Because it matters how many need to be quarantined and how quickly we need to find other cases. https://t.co/M5ID5Sg31y

Wisconsin records highest single-day number of new COVID-19 cases

The state is emerging as a new hot spot in the U.S

Wisconsin is battling record-high new COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths.
Public health officials warn it will only get worse without action as winter approaches.

.By Alexandra Kelley @ TheHill.com, Oct. 1

Coronavirus outbreaks are erupting in dozens of states across the U.S., with Wisconsin leading the pack as the newest Midwest hot spot.

On Thursday, the state recorded 2,887 newly confirmed COVID-19 cases — the highest the state has seen since the onset of the pandemic. This brings the cumulative total of confirmed coronavirus cases recorded throughout the pandemic to 125,161 in Wisconsin as of Oct. 1.

Deaths resulting from coronavirus infections and related illnesses also hit a new record high, with the state health deporting 27 fatalities on Wednesday, the highest single-day death toll for the state. This brings the cumulative number of deaths to 1,348.

These grim new statistics follow Gov. Tony Evers (D) declaring a public health emergency on Sept. 23 as new cases continued to climb. On Tuesday, he confirmed the state was in the midst of a “crisis.”

"We are nine months into this pandemic," Evers told the press. "It's not slowing down. It's picking up speed. We have got to put the brakes on this pandemic."

Some 683 patients are currently hospitalized with COVID-19 infections, an increase of 37 patients from the previous day, according to the Wisconsin Hospital Association. This figure also represents a grim record high as new cases skyrocket [....]

And Trump's not cancelling his Wisconsin rallies, he's just moving from hotspot LaCrosse to Janesville (which happens to be Paul Ryan hometown territory,) and still stopping in Green Bay hotspot, bullshit excuse included--

As COVID-19 cases surge in La Crosse, Donald Trump relocates Saturday rally to Janesville

Updated 10 min ago @ KenoshaNews.com

President Donald Trump’s campaign on Thursday canceled a rally that had been planned for Saturday in La Crosse — an area the White House has deemed a COVID-19 “red zone” — and replaced it with a stop in Janesville, where cases have been lower but the state still considers disease activity to be high.

Also on Thursday, Hope Hicks, one of Trump’s closest aides who traveled with him to a rally Wednesday in Minnesota, tested positive for the coronavirus, The Associated Press reported.

The director of the La Crosse Regional Airport said Saturday’s event was canceled due to a legal complication, not concerns over the coronavirus. Trump still planned to make a stop on Saturday in Green Bay, which also has been designated a “red zone.”

The announcement comes as Wisconsin set another record for daily COVID-19 cases [....]

U.S. broke another record. (I did not know of this site but I absolutely trust it because Daniel Dale retweeted it.)

Our daily update is published.

Four weeks ago, Dr. Fauci told me that if we're to control this pandemic in winter, we need to get our daily case counts down from 40K to 10K "in the next few weeks." A few weeks later, our case count is up to 50K. https://t.co/DpWSQuZRzG
