Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer says residents have achieved the first step in getting the state “vacc to normal.”

Whitmer announced 55% of residents have received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. With that, she says in-person work can resume on May 24.

I’m excited to announce that 55% of Michiganders have gotten their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. This is a huge milestone in getting #MIVaccToNormal and means that on May 24 we can return to in-person work. If you haven’t yet, please schedule a vaccine appointment today. pic.twitter.com/Q827k3Rhii
