City of Allen Park recently issued the following announcement.
Note on deaths (1/13/2022):
This report includes historical, cumulative deaths not included in previous daily reports. Regular reviews of death certificate data maintained in Vital Records reporting systems are conducted by MDHHS staff. 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.
