Claim: Wisconsin is clearly seeing a decline in COVID infections

Q1: How many confirmed cases in Wisconsin during this time period?
A1: Zooming in to the last six days (April 15 to 20), Wisconsin had between 147 and 170 new confirmed cases per day. The tally was lower the days before that due to a lower number of tests being performed.

The most recent tally released prior to the statement from Vos and Fitzgerald was April 20, with 153 cases, up six from the day before. That’s on par with the April average of 157 new cases per day.

Q2: What about hospitalizations?
A2: This is the lone metric that shows a decline over the last couple weeks.

After rising to start the month, the daily tally leveled off around 440 per day from April 9 to 14.

The number then dropped for two days before holding steady between 357 and 361 from April 17 to 21.

Q3: Does this show a clear decline in COVID infections?
A3: There are a lot of ways to slice the coronavirus data, but this is an exaggeration.

New cases and deaths in the week before this claim were roughly in line with both the preceding week and the averages for the month of April. Hospitalizations had dropped somewhat from the week prior, but were holding steady for the five preceding days.

justification: Lower numbers seem attributed to lesser testing.
