LANSING, MI (AP)— The state plans to begin reporting Michigan’s COVID-19 data once per week as the numbers of cases and deaths decline.

Michigan's Department of Health and Human Services says its online COVID-19 dashboard will be updated only on Wednesdays. Currently, data is posted on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, but that changes starting this coming Monday.

Michigan has reported more than 2 million confirmed COVID-19 cases and 32,758 deaths since the start of the pandemic. Between Saturday and Monday, 1,258 newly confirmed cases and six deaths were reported.
