Genesee County, MI has no confirmed cases, yet, but 22 tests are awaiting results

They've only conducted 33 tests, so far. So, is that because there aren't a lot of people showing up at ERs and meeting criteria or do they just not have very many tests. I haven't heard any reports of ERs being overwhelmed.

I have one more must do errand, to sign my tax forms, and then I'm hoping to just stay put until we see how things are or aren't developing, here. I'm trying to remain optimistic. It's getting difficult.

I’m not holding my breath.
I got some Nitril gloves at Harbor Frieght that I really like and wear when I go out. Cheap enough to toss out when I get home. For some reason they keep me from touching my face. Wipe every thing I touched in the car and door handles.
Good luck.

And some in Kent County. No doubt that a major risk factor has to be population density.
