Team : Saw this in the clips. Have we received a formal request from the Michigan Governor for DoD help on
COVID? Obviously, she has authorities to use the Guard, but is she asking for broader help? I haven't seen a letter or
anything.
7. Hospitals Seek Military Help in Michigan Amid Covid Overflow
Bloomberg News, Nov. 23 (1635) I Keith Naughton and Anna Edney
Henry Ford Health System has seen Covid-19 cases soar by 50% in three weeks, straining staff and care at the Detroit-
based network of five major hospitals in southeast Michigan. On Tuesday, statewide Covid hospitalizations reached
4,085, approaching the record of 4,640 set in April 2020 at the onset of the pandemic. M ichigan's hospitals, with the
help of Governor Gretchen Whitmer, have asked the U.S. Department of Defense to provide emergency staff, said Brian
Peters, chief executive officer of the Michigan Health & Hospital Association.
Thanks,
