Ongoing updates from the Wood County Health Dept. 
Good Afternoon,
On March 24th Governor Evers issued a Safer at Home order. The order bans all gatherings with 10 or more people. It is not limited to indoor gatherings and includes any defined space, parking lots and festival grounds. This encompasses faith based gatherings, drive-in services, weddings, and funerals. It is important to limit gatherings only to people living within the same household to avoid transmitting the virus through social networks.
Attached is a press release regarding the Safer at Home order and faith based gatherings, an updated infographic with COVID-19 numbers for Wood County and Wisconsin, and an infographic explaining that get-togethers are NOT allowed.
Ongoing updates will be posted to our department website and Facebook. Please share these posts on your social media platforms.
