LANSING, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — Monday, Governor Gretchen Whitmer sent a letter to Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar requesting permission to directly purchase up to 100,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccines for the State of Michigan.
Governor Whitmer also noted that since she and eight other governors sent a letter to the Trump Administration requesting that they distribute the millions of safe and effective COVID-19 vaccine doses that are currently being held back, she has not received a response.
