Star Tribune State News Reporter John Reinan visited Wadena last week when the newest COVID statistics showed Wadena County as national hotspot.

Reinan is originally from Fergus Falls and handles a typically delicate topic very well.

His article, “In Minnesota hot spot, COVID has become a way of life“, touches on conversations with local business owners, medical professionals, and residents, and how COVID has impacted Wadena specifically. It’s a firsthand look at a nationwide story that essentially starts on our main street.

I’d encourage you to read it.

John was interviewed about his article and we will air the interview tomorrow, 11/23, on KWAD at 11:05am, but if you’d prefer, you can listen to it right here:
