Mt. Pleasant Area Ranked 9th in the Nation for Most New COVID-19 Cases By Population, 1st for Fastest Increase April 7, 2021 “It’s not super surprising, but it’s very disappointing,” says McKayla, who lives in Isabella County. According to the New York Times, the Mt. Pleasant area is ninth in the nation for having the most new COVID-19 cases by population, and number one for places where cases are rising the fastest. Jennifer Morse, medical director for the Central Michigan District Health Department (CMDHD), says, “We have had a pretty big increase in COVID-19 cases relatively suddenly, so that will cause our increase in COVID-19 cases to show up on databases like that.”

Waitlist available for single-dose COVID-19 vaccine

CADILLAC — There was good news Wednesday for people in Wexford, Missaukee and Lake counties who d prefer to get as few shots as possible. District Health Department No. 10, which serves the above three counties as well as seven others, announced that health department residents who prefer the Johnson and Johnson vaccine can get on a waiting list. Until now, it s not been possible to reserve a specific vaccine brand; you typically get what you get. But unlike the two-dose Moderna and Pfizer vaccines, the Johnson and Johnson vaccine requires just one dose, making it preferable for people who would have difficulty making two appointments or who loathe injections.
