GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — State officials say that Gov. Gretchen Whitmer will hold another briefing this afternoon on the state’s response to the coronavirus outbreak.
Gov. Whitmer will be joined by Lt. Gov. Garlin Gilchrist, who has been heading up a task force on racial disparity in the impacts of coronavirus, and Dr. Joneigh Khaldun, the state’s chief medical executive.

Health Department officials said Michigan is doing much better than it was when the state’s outbreak was at its peak in April, and much better than a number of other states where cases are surging and some hospitals are struggling to keep up.
