Once again Wisconsin is reporting more than 7,000 new COVID-19 cases in one day.

Sixty-six more people died of the virus.

The state has no restrictions in place and lawmakers have repeatedly not answered questions about what, if any, plan they would like to see in place.

The 7-day average percentage of positive tests by person is 36%.

The average by test is 18.1%.

The COVID-19 outbreak is out of control in Wisconsin.

There are almost 62,000 people with COVID-19 in Wisconsin right now.

.@patricktestin, who leads the Wisconsin Senate's health committee, told @Emilee_WKOW on Sunday he's "open to any suggestions as I have been since we passed the COVID relief bill back in April."

@patricktestin @Emilee_WKOW "We’re in a much different situation now than we were several months ago where we have seen a surge and spike in cases," Testin said.

@patricktestin @Emilee_WKOW Testin said hospital leaders are going to be meeting with the governor and leaders of the Assembly and Senate "to see if there’s anything we can come up with."

Testin did not return a phone call seeking more information about that meeting.

@patricktestin @Emilee_WKOW "My door remains open to any and all suggestions that can put Wisconsin in a better place to help with the spread and surge of this virus," Testin said.

@patricktestin @Emilee_WKOW Testin also said the Senate is still considering whether to fire Health Services Secretary Andrea Palm.

@patricktestin @Emilee_WKOW He also said: "What’s important is that we continue to work, in a bipartisan manner, work with the administration in any way we can to make sure we’re putting our best foot forward."
