The first cases of coronavirus and COVID-19 have been confirmed in Michigan, sources tell 7 Action News.
Gov. Whitmer announced late Tuesday that she has also declared a state of emergency to assist local governments to slow the spread of the virus.
According to the state Chief Medical Executive and Chief Deputy for Health Dr. Joneigh S. Khaldun, the cases are in Oakland and Wayne counties. The Oakland County resident is an adult female and had a recent history of international travel. The Wayne County resident is an adult male had a history of domestic travel. Both patients are middle-aged, according to Whitmer.
"This patient in Wayne County is currently under isolation. Our Public Health Division is working to identify individuals who may have come into close contact with the patient so we can take appropriate steps and monitor them closely,” said Wayne County Executive Warren C. Evans. “We are continuing to collaborate with the state health department and recommend residents continue to practice prevention measures to slow the spread of COVID-19.”

Doncha love watching the Coronavirus Groupies trying desperately to push this thing as a pandemic?
The current death toll from COVID-19 worldwide = 4,298!
If the government has any excuse to throw their weight around they will.
swine flu killed 20,000 Americans, 20 freakin thousand and not a peep from the commie media..because it was all about protecting Obama
At this rate come November Low Info voters will think a million people have died from Wu flu. Conservatives should not be aiding Democrats in their hoax virus campaign.
What would Bill Bonds say about this?
First reaction of ANY Democrat governor to a trendy disease: EVERYONE PANIC!
(So we then have cover to figure out how we can make money off this).
Oy vey!
Right. Not “Michigan,” Wayne County.
As I’ve said before, I expect to see COVID19 in corrupt, liberal urban areas that are teaming with illegals and filth. But real American heartland will be mostly untouched.
I have not entered a major city in 30-plus years and am not going to start now. This is a prime example of why.
I don’t know how large the Muslim population is in Detrout but I know there are enclaves of Muslims in Michigan. I don’t think those enclaves and the Coronavirus are going to mix well if they stick to their traditional habits.
State of Emergency is becoming nothing more than situational awareness campaign and a money grab.
