Description
Some think Coronavirus and COVID-19 is a "Detroit" or "Southeast Michigan" problem. But with a lack of access to health care, an older population, and risk factors like tobacco use and poverty, rural and outstate Michigan could get devastated by COVID-19. To talk about it is Citizens Research Council of Michigan Research Associate Tim Michling. He had an eye-opening piece that might put things in a bit more perspective. You can read it here: https://crcmich.org/all-of-michigan-still-at-risk-from-covid-19 Also, we touch some top stories around the Coronavirus crisis. The state continues to see new cases, but is starting to see more people get released from hospitals than come in. What is the plan to reopen the economy? Governor Gretchen Whitmer says it'll be the reverse of what they're doing in Georgia, and more details will come by the end of the week. The state of Michigan is going to be doing 10-day layoffs in various departments. We share what we know so far. Wayne County has at least a $152 million shortfall this year, joining a growing list of cities and counties that will be severely impacted. Beaumont has made a makeshift morgue at their Wayne hospital, and the county is investigating. Drive through testing is expanding into Dearborn. Well-known brewer Founders is laying off taproom and retail staff. Find what we're doing valuable?
