COVID-19 Update for the Week Ending Friday, May 27
The City of Mequon, in coordination with the Washington/Ozaukee Public Health Department (WOPHD) and other state and federal agencies, continues to monitor the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
- As of this update, the State has reported that 5,087,871 COVID-19 vaccines have been administered and 2,404,085 Wisconsin residents have completed the vaccination series.
- Beginning Monday, June 1, facemasks will no longer be required for vaccinated individuals in most state buildings, including the Capitol.
- The FDA authorized a change in the Pfizer vaccine storage. The vaccine may be stored in its undiluted, thawed state at refrigerator temperatures for a month. This is up from the previous authorization of 5 days, making storage and distribution easier.
Please help to continue limiting the spread of COVID-19 in the community by maintaining a safe social distance when necessary, avoiding large gatherings, following proper hygiene practices, and staying home when sick.
