A glimmer of good news from Michigan only 41 new deaths.

New case count is low but historically is on weekends so not jubillant about that yet. My little slice of heaven 4 new cases no new deaths so we are at 113 cases and 4 deaths.

No mention that the number included catch-up reporting. Seriously gave me a rotten night’s sleep.
