Coronavirus cases are rising in Michigan and COVID-19 hospitalizations have spiked 80% in recent weeks, climbing in all regions of the state, health officials warned Tuesday.

“It is very possible that this is the beginning of a second wave,” said Dr. Joneigh Khaldun, the chief medical executive and chief deputy director for health for the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services.

“That is why we are asking everyone to remain vigilant and do these basic things: wearing masks, avoiding the social gatherings. It’s very important.”

Michigan Sen. Gary Peters shares story about ex-wife’s life-saving abortion for the first time

“The mental anguish someone goes through is intense,” Peters, a Michigan Democrat, said in an interview with Elle magazine published on Monday, “trying to have a miscarriage for a child that was wanted.”

But the situation became more critical when Heidi’s health deteriorated, so the couple found a doctor at another hospital who agreed to do the procedure.

In the interview, Peters spoke publicly for the first time about the abortion and the troubling moments leading up to the event, which threatened the life of his ex-wife. Peters now joins a small group of members of Congress who have spoken about their personal experiences with abortion.

“My story is one that’s tragically shared by so many Americans,” Peters tweeted on Monday. “It’s a story of gut-wrenching and complicated decisions — but it’s important for folks to understand families face these situations every day.”

Over 104,000 Michiganders have recovered from the novel coronavirus since the start of the pandemic, state health officials say.

The state releases new data on recoveries every Saturday. Last weekend, the recoveries were at 99,521.

Michigan reported 1,522 new coronavirus cases Oct. 10, bringing the statewide total to 134,656, according to Saturday’s update from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services.

Health officials also reported 15 new deaths of people with the virus, bringing the state’s running death toll to 6,891. The state’s case fatality rate is 5.3%.

Meanwhile, Michigan’s top Senate Republican lawmaker says he is in favor of rolling back many of the measures put in place by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s administration to limit COVID-19 spread and believes “an element of herd immunity” needs to happen in the state.

Here are the latest developments on the COVID-19 pandemic for Monday, Oct. 5.

Michigan health department issues capacity limit, contact tracing rules

October 10, 2020

| Health Issues

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services issued new rules Friday that reinstate capacity limits at 50% at restaurants, museums, retail stores and libraries, and require workers to wear masks if they cannot maintain six feet of distance. 

The epidemic order allows for gatherings at professional sports facilities, entertainment venues, cinemas and theaters so long as patrons not of the same household can maintain six feet of distance. 

Those entertainment venues as well as barber shop, salons, fitness centers, bowling alleys and skating rinks must keep accurate records of guests, their phone numbers and the time they visited to aid in contact tracing. 

In-home services such as cleaners, painters or maintenance workers must keep accurate appointment records in order to aid in contact tracing.

The order lifts any closures on bars, but bars and restaurants may only serve alcohol if parties are seated at tables that are six feet

The newly instituted order requires masks at any public gathering with two or more people — including sporting events and schools — for much of the state and maintains restrictions on the number of people who may enter stores or restaurants.

Michigan families eligible for food stamps, or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits, will continue receiving additional benefits through October, the state announced Friday.

The additional benefits will impact about 350,000 families who have been receiving the increased monthly benefits since March in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Eligible participants should expect to see the extra benefits on their Bridge Cards by Oct. 30, with payments beginning for some households on Oct. 18. 

The additional benefits will be loaded onto Bridge Cards as a separate payment from assistance provided earlier in the month. Those who already are eligible for the program will see an increase in monthly benefits if they are not already receiving the maximum SNAP benefits.

‘Joyful journaling’ app from University of Michigan grads helps young people understand their mental health

October 8, 2020

| Health Issues

ANN ARBOR, MI — Drew Pilat, Tommy Searle, Jack Kornet and Mars Hovasse were frustrated by the lack of self-care resources they said they found available to students when they were undergrads at the University of Michigan.

University counseling services were overwhelmed, and waitlists often stretched for weeks, and the self-care resources available were old and clinical, they said.

So, the four friends decided to create a resource of their own: Wellnest, a “joyful journaling” app where users can use their voice to make journal entries to help them get ready for their day, understand their moods or just make a few quick notes.

“We know that journaling is incredibly healthy and accessible, but not many of our peers were actually doing it,” Pilat said. “We also liked this shift because the majority of students experiencing mental health issues don’t seek help, but we could still reach them with Wellnest.”

Michigan Health Director Issues Order Requiring Face Coverings

| Health Issues

MICHIGAN — Just days after the Michigan Supreme Court shot down Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s emergency orders regarding the coronavirus crisis, the head of the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services issued his own emergency order.

Health Department Director Robert Gordon on Monday issued an emergency order restricting gathering sizes, requiring face coverings in public spaces and placing limitations on bars and other venues.

The order relies on authorities that were first enacted after the Spanish Flu of 1918 and that were not at issue in the Michigan Supreme Court’s decision, the MDHHS said.
