COVID-19: 3 years later

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Three years ago, a major change in Wisconsin's approach to the COVID-19 pandemic. The virus had already been moving across the country, but March 13, 2020 was a turning point in our state. 

At 1:45 p.m. on March 13, 2020, 19 cases of COVID were confirmed in Wisconsin. In the next couple minutes, schools across the state began to close. 

By 4:30 p.m., Governor Tony Evers closed all schools with the anticipation they would reopen April 6. 

In the end, Wisconsin's public and private K-12 schools remained closed for the rest of the school year. 

Three years later, where are we now? CBS 58 was joined by Doctor Bill Hartman with UW-Health to share more.
