Michigan will expand vaccine eligibility today to residents age 50 and older.

This comes as public health experts are voicing fresh concerns about Michigan’s rising COVID-19 infection rate.

Ford Field is set to open Wednesday as Michigan's first federally run mass vaccine site.

State health officials say the state's case rate has increased 77% to more than 170 cases per million people.
