We’re taking a look at how COVID-19 deaths have been higher in Michigan over the last 12 months compared to the previous 12 months -- and our state is out of step with the rest of the Midwest, and most of the rest of the country, in that distinction.

Joining us to talk about these findings is Dr. Jim Baker, immunology physician and professor at the University of Michigan.
