Michigan today reported 95 new deaths from Covid 19, bringing the state’s total to 1,487.
645 new cases were reported today, bringing Michigan’s total number of cases to 24,638.
The state coronavirus website notes: Although a reduced number of COVID-19 cases are being reported today, 645 cases compared to 1,210 reported on April 11, and deaths, 95 compared to 111 on April 11, we cannot say if this represents a true decline in COVID-19 cases and deaths in our state. Reported case counts may reflect a reduction in the amount of laboratory testing performed over the weekend and holiday. Single day fluctuations in the number of confirmed cases may not be significant, as a number of external factors can affect data reporting.
Michigan reported its first case on March 10.
