Bill Burr Predicted It: Milwaukee Bucks Championship Celebration Leads to Covid Surge in Wisconsin - NewsBreak

As Milwaukee Bucks fans enjoyed the team's first NBA championship in 50 years, there was immediate concern over Covid-19, but it didn't stop the celebrations last month. According to Milwaukee Health Commissioner Kirsten Johnson, contract tracing and testing is ongoing, but the health department already identified 491 cases of Covid in connection with the celebrations. Health officials report those 491 people said they did attend the Deer District or a Bucks game "during their exposure or infectious periods." Still, the state Department of Health Services would not guarantee those people caught the virus while attending a Bucks related event.
