The state is working with more labs to possibly expand coronavirus testing in Wisconsin.
The Department of Health Services can now receive results on more than 3,500 tests every day.
Dr. Ryan Westergaard of the Department of Health Services wants to look at different options for how to test more people, and get valuable data from it. He says they could target places with outbreaks, and test a larger number of people in those areas.
So far, the department has typically been testing serious COVID-19 cases, and health care workers that might have been exposed.
The state is now partnering with 12 labs to run tests.
