The state, which has had the seventh largest outbreak in the country, is in the third phase of its six-phase plan.

Governor Gretchen Whitmer's six-phase plan to reopen Michigan will ease the state back into normalcy based on the status of the outbreak, hospital capacity and the state's ability to conduct testing and contact tracing.

When new cases and deaths fall for a period of time, the state can move into the next phase, known as the"improving" phase. At that point, retail stores can reopen at a limited capacity; people can return to their offices, unless it's feasible to work remotely; and summer programs can be held in small groups. During phase four, people can start gathering in small groups but with social distancing.
