Nursing homes have said they are not only at the mercy of MiStart map levels but also could only open after being been COVID-free for 14 days. They also said they have faced confusing layers of guidance and requirements from the state and the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

Nearly a thousand health care workers in Ingham County are getting Pfizer s COVID-19 vaccine every week.
Health Officer Linda Vail says so far, the state has provided her department with 975 doses of vaccine a week. They’re getting an extra dose out of some vials.
She says the staff and the schedule would allow for more. “We did ask for the double, 1,950 doses this week, and didn’t get it, Vail adds, but we will be asking again, and I’ve also made a few phone calls.”
Vail says the department is vaccinating 350 or more people per day, and could double or triple that if they had enough vaccine.
