We've gone from 0 cases here in Michigan on Mar 10 to 1,324 on Mar 23, putting us 5th in the nation

Our mortality rate is 1.2%, 12x worse than for influenza.

A week ago I expected the nation would have only 25,000 cases by now at a 5x rate. We have 41,701 and 537 deaths, for a mortality rate of 1.28%.

Increased testing is occurring.

Michigan is staying at home to prevent spread.

Every day you stay at home increases the chances someone hospitalized for COVID-19 will survive.

You do your part just by doing nothing, at home.
