MADISON, Wis. – Like after a long winter, change is in the air. Vaccinators say that much-talked-about light at the end of the tunnel is getting closer by the day.
“We see it. We feel it,” said Mo Kharbat, regional vice president of pharmacy services at SSM Health. “Thankfully, we’re seeing the number of COVID-positive cases decline. The overall mood around here is excitement.”
“It’s great. Everyone I think is breathing a sigh of relief,” said Doug Voegeli with Public Health Madison & Dane County. “We know we’re going to have supply.”
Wisconsin reported no new deaths due to COVID-19 for the first time in over a week, according to the latest numbers from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services.
