Also on Tuesday, the Wisconsin National Guard reported new numbers from mobile testing at sites around the state where Guard teams are assisting. The Guard said after collecting the specimens at each site, Wisconsin National Guard troops send the test kits to a state lab for analysis, and individual citizens receive their results via a phone call from their local health department or a state call center within three-to-five days following the test.

For Brown County, nearly 6,400 specimens had been collected at the Resch Center as of Tuesday. The Wisconsin National Guard said its specimen collection team has collected nearly 3,400 specimens at Casa ALBA.
