That means staff is in an all hands on deck situation to deal with an overwhelming number of patients due to high spread of COVID-19 and staff and supply shortages. This is the first time Michigan's largest health system has been in "red status" since the beginning of the pandemic. 

CDC BOOSTER APPROVAL TODAY: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is expected to sign off on boosters for all adults Friday after getting the green light from the FDA. Currently, only older adults and those with compromised immune systems are approved.
