About this data
Sources: State and local health agencies (cases, deaths); U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (hospitalizations); Centers for Disease Control and state governments (vaccinations); Census Bureau (population and demographic data). The daily average is calculated with data that was reported in the last seven days. Hospitalized for each county shows the average number of Covid-19 patients hospitalized per 100,000 residents within any hospital service areas that intersect with the county. Vaccination data is not available for some counties. All-time charts show data from Jan. 21, 2020 to present.How trends have changed in Michigan
About this data
Sources: State and local health agencies (cases, deaths); U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (tests, hospitalizations). The seven-day average is the average of the most recent seven days of data. Cases and deaths data are assigned to dates based on when figures are publicly reported. Currently hospitalized is the most recent number of patients with Covid-19 reported by hospitals in the state for the four days prior. Dips and spikes could be due to inconsistent reporting by hospitals. Hospitalization numbers early in the pandemic are undercounts due to incomplete reporting by hospitals to the federal government. Tests represent the number of individual P.C.R. viral test specimens tested by laboratories and state health departments and reported to the federal government. Hospitalizations and tests are counted based on dates assigned by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and are subject to historical revisions.Outbreak clusters

About the data
In data for Michigan, The Times primarily relies on reports from the state, as well as health districts or county governments that often report ahead of the state. The state updates its data on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Some local health officials report more frequently. Michigan released new data daily until September 2020 and weekdays until July 2021, then Tuesdays and Fridays during July 2021. The state reports cases and deaths based on a person’s permanent or usual residence. The state also includes nonresidents diagnosed in the state, but The Times excludes this category since nonresidents are likely also counted in their home state.
The Times has identified reporting anomalies or methodology changes in the data.
More about reporting anomalies or changes
- Sept. 6, 2021: The daily count could be artificially low because many jurisdictions did not announce new data on Labor Day.
- Jan. 14, 2021: Data from the Michigan Department of Corrections was added for prisons in Chippewa, Gratiot, Montcalm and other counties.
- Jan. 2, 2021: Michigan reported data for three days after not announcing new data on Dec. 31 or Jan. 1.
- Dec. 26, 2020: Michigan reported data for Dec. 24-26 after reporting no data on the previous two days.
- Dec. 4, 2020: Data from the Michigan Department of Corrections was added for prisons in Alger, Baraga, Chippewa, Gratiot, Ionia, Jackson, Lenawee, Luce and Montcalm counties.
- Nov. 27, 2020: Michigan reported data for Nov. 26 and Nov. 27 after reporting no data on Thanksgiving.

- June 5, 2020: Michigan began reporting probable cases and deaths statewide, leading to a one-day increase in total cases and deaths.
- June 1, 2020: The Times began including probable cases and deaths reported by Michigan's county and regional health districts.
- April 15, 2020: Our database began to include cases and deaths among federal and state prison inmates in Michigan, which are reported separately by the state department of health.
- The Times totals for each county in Michigan include cases and deaths among federal and state prison inmates, which are reported separately by the state department of health. Prison cases and deaths are included starting April 15.
The tallies on this page include probable and confirmed cases and deaths.
Confirmed cases and deaths, which are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a molecular laboratory test. Probable cases and deaths count individuals who meet criteria for other types of testing, symptoms and exposure, as developed by national and local governments.
Governments often revise data or report a single-day large increase in cases or deaths from unspecified days without historical revisions, which can cause an irregular pattern in the daily reported figures. The Times is excluding these anomalies from seven-day averages when possible. For agencies that do not report data every day, variation in the schedule on which cases or deaths are reported, such as around holidays, can also cause an irregular pattern in averages. The Times uses an adjustment method to vary the number of days included in an average to remove these irregularities.
