Deep dive on COVID-19 data

Dear Neighbors,

Today’s email provides a close look at the data being collected as Minnesota responds to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Minnesota Department of Health updates this information on their website every day around 11am. Click here and bookmark the page so you can have it handy in the future.

In addition, Governor Walz just unveiled a new State of Minnesota COVID-19 dashboard that tracks the virus in Minnesota and provides the latest available data on available ventilators, ICU beds, personal protective equipment (PPE), and testing. The dashboard will be updated daily and is available at www.mn.gov/covid19. 

Staff have been hard at work compiling a comprehensive document of resources currently available for workers, businesses, and families. Click here to download a copy. Please reach out to my office if I can be of assistance in any way. Email me at rep.paul.marquart@house.mn, call 1-800-551-5520, or visit www.house.mn/04B.

Thank you to everyone for doing your part in fighting the spread of COVID-19.

Sincerely,

Paul Marquart

State Representative
