9 more cases of COVID-19 were confirmed on Tuesday by the Sheboygan County Division of Public Health, raising the county total during the pandemic to 13,810 cases.

The percentage of fully vaccinated county residents advanced by only one-tenth to 39.9%, and 45,964 persons, 98 more than on Monday, are fully vaccinated against the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
With 7 recoveries, the active case count in Sheboygan County gained 2 to 83 cases, and hospitalizations dropped by 1, to 3 persons.
