One thing you don't hear a lot about in the corona news is recoveries. I didn't catch the numbers today because I spent an hour or so wandering around the Family Fare store, breathing like Darth Vader, finding only four items on a ten item list. As of yesterday Michigan was reporting over 50,000 cases and almost 5,000 deaths. Recoveries are only updated once a week, and we gained about 6,000 of those last week, bringing our total to more than 28,000. This means we should have about 17,000 active cases left. At this rate, recoveries are on track to start outpacing new cases, if they haven't already. This isn't counting all the people who might have recovered from the virus without even knowing that they had it, or people who might have the virus now without knowing that they have it. Somebody should do a study about that.
I read on my news app that the Wisconsin State Supreme court has overturned their governor's corona orders. I don't think it's exactly the same situation as in Michigan because I found no mention of a state of emergency, and their laws might be different than ours anyway. Our case has been heard by a judge, but no ruling has yet been rendered as far as I know.
