“Protecting the health and safety of our campusâ¯community has always been critical to our student experience, but never more so than during this pandemic,” Central Michigan University president Bob Davis said. “By data-driven planning and development ofâ¯measures to keep our community safe, we’ve been able to stay open and operational since returning to campus last June. And now, because ofâ¯Governor Whitmer’sâ¯unwavering commitment to make vaccinations available to all Michiganders, we are positioned and prepared to offer mass vaccinations to all of our students. We are appreciative to the Governor and her staff for their efforts to keep our community and all of Michigan safe.”

DETROIT, MI - The vaccine clinic at Ford Field was designed for Black Detroiters. This was the expressed goal of the federal site according to Lt. Gov. Garlin Gilchrist, chair of the COVID-19 Task Force on Racial Disparities.
Michigan worked with the federal government to make Ford Field a clinic to continue the state’s outreach initiatives towards racial equity with the vaccine, Gilchrist said on March 18.
“As a Detroiter, I felt this personally, having said goodbye to 27 people due to this virus,” he said at press conference inside the Detroit Lions stadium. “The virus hit our city hard.and today, right here at Ford Field, southeast Michigan becomes a symbol of hope.”
