LACROSSE, Wis. — The county Health Department cannot keep up with coronavirus tracking and asked infected people to get in touch themselves with their suspected contacts. Don’t let your contacts wait for a county tracker to call, Health Director Jen Rombalski said. Noting 872 new cases in LaCrosse last week, the department has significant delays in tracking: “Our team has worked tirelessly to slow the spread, but we are stretched past capacity.” Let your contacts know they have been exposed so they can quarantine themselves immediately.
