In Progress

Milwaukee County's COVID-19 Dashboard provides information on those affected by the virus grouped on income, age range, race/ethnicity, and even testing and hospital capacity. This has allowed the county to see where vulnerable communities are getting hit the hardest and allocate resources accordingly. The county plans to utilize this dashboard for future public health emergencies to detect racial disparities.
