The total number of confirmed cases: 80,887 which is a 715 person increase from the previous day. Deaths: 6,191 total deceased which is a *19 person increase from the previous day.

Note on deaths (7/30/20): Regular reviews of death certificate data maintained in Vital Records reporting systems are conducted by MDHHS staff three times per week. As a part of this process, records that identify COVID-19 infection as a contributing factor to death are compared against all laboratory confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the Michigan Disease Surveillance System (MDSS). If a death certificate is matched to a confirmed COVID-19 case and that record in the MDSS does not indicate the individual died, the MDSS record is updated to indicate the death and the appropriate local health department is notified. These matched deaths are then included with mortality information posted to the Michigan Coronavirus website. As a result of the most recent assessment, today’s data includes 14 additional deaths identified by this methodology.

*Currently 7.6% of those who have been confirmed to have contracted COVID-19 have perished. This leaves the survival rate currently at 93.4%. (This does NOT reflect all 9.9 million people in the state, just those who have tested positive.)

*The state is reporting that only 57,502 have recovered from COVID-19 since July 24th.

**At the suggestion of a reader of these posts, I will also be combining Wayne, Oakland and Macomb County totals being that is the bulk of Metro Detroit.**

*Combined tri-county area ( including Detroit) number of cases confirmed 45,596 which accounts for 56.3% of the cases in the state.

*Combined tri-county area ( including Detroit) number of deaths confirmed 4,655 which accounts for 75.1% of the deaths in the state.

*Detroit and Wayne County lead the state with 25,377 cases or 31.3% of the total in the state.

The city of Detroit is in the County of Wayne so that is why they are combined here.
