Wisconsin has a higher elderly population, retirement population than its border states.
It will be interesting to see in a few weeks the impact of people from those other states...crossing state lines to use the open services of Wisconsin.
Also, note that there's 6 - 9 different Indigenous American tribes in Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota and about 3 different Indigenous American tribes in Illinois...border states.
They didn't have any representation in the vote count to re-open Wisconsin...if there's any outbreaks...they'll most likely be hit the hardest considering many live in rural areas that have hospital systems very vulnerable to any Covid-19 outbreaks.
In fact, Indigenous communities (reservations) in some U.S. and Canadian provinces have been road blocking outside visitors unless the outsiders are "essential workers" to prevent the possibility of an outbreak.
Unfortunately, the Navajo Nation reservation in New Mexico, Arizona and Utah is hit the hardest. They road block too late and now they have the highest infection rate of all the U.S. states.

Yes, you are defending someone who does not allow people to wear masks during an infectious disease outbreak!!. Trump has over achieved.
Have you seen mortality statistics out of Florida? Any explanation why people who are dying of COVID seems to be a low %, but people dying of pneumonia has spiked this year?
A spike in pneumonia at this time of the year in Florida is statistically unusual.
Health officials already looking at the possibility that the pneumonia was caused by Covid-19 which just happens to be a serious side effect of Covid-19 especially those put on life-support.
Pneumonia is a sneaky illness...it can be caused by bacteria, viral, fungi and even air pollution particles although the most common is bacteria. Yeah, many strains of Pneumonia has a vaccine that most people don't know about while most know there's a vaccine for seasonal Flu.
Simply, the next time you get your
Flu shot...get a
Pneumonia shot too (usually a two part vaccination). Pneumonia is the leading cause of death in children and elderly...80% of the deaths from Pneumonia are in children under the age of five years old.
+2.56 million people died from Pneumonia in 2017
+2.57 million people died from Pneumonia in 2016 (I was almost one of those statistics in 2016)
Overall since 1990...the trend has been down on the other side of the bell curve but millions still die every year.
