Coronavirus
The CDC has a Frequently Asked Questions page to help you understand more about COVID-19.
PLEASE NOTE: Case counts and statistics will only be updated Monday - Friday and exclude holidays.
**Change in reporting Oct. 6, 2021 - Cases defined as probable will be reported in cumulative case and death counts. As additional methods of testing besides the PCR test have become more common, the amount of cases classified as probable has increased and are included to provide a more accurate picture of disease in our community.**
| Report Date: January 20, 2022 | Number of Cases* (Cumulative) | Number of Deaths* | Recovered** |
| Jackson County | 34,814 | 472 | 27,831 |
*These numbers do not reflect any cases or deaths identified through Michigan Department of Corrections. Their numbers are listed under a separate category "Others" for the Michigan Statistics.
* Cases, Deaths, and Recovered all include confirmed and probable.
**Recovered is defined as the number of persons with a confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis who are alive 30 days post-onset (or referral date if onset is not available).
| Confirmed Cases- PCR test processed at lab | Probable Cases - rapid test by trained staff or symptomatic and contact with confirmed positive |
| 30,671 | 4,143 |
Probable cases include individuals with either a positive proctored rapid antigen test OR COVID-19 symptoms and an epidemiologic link to a confirmed COVID-19 case. If a probable case, during the isolation period, meets the criteria for a confirmed case they will be subtracted from the probable total and added to the confirmed case count.

Epicurve Data
The Epicurve graph available (thru 1/16/2022) will allow you to see how the daily number of cases have gone up and down since the first case was identified in March. You can open the Epicurve Data here. EpiCurve data will be posted each Monday according to the template which collects and runs the numbers.
Map of Cases
The 1/18/2022 map of Cumulative Cases of COVID-19 in Jackson County Townships is posted.
At times, street addresses are not always available which affect the ability to map all data. If this occurs, a difference between posted cases totals and mapped cases may be seen. You can download a pdf version of the map for printing.
*New Michigan Map
The Michigan Safe Start Map is now available for you to Track the risk phases of COVID-19 indicators in predetermined sections of the state based on Epidemic Spread and Public Health Capacity.
