In western Addison Township (48370), there have been five confirmed cases and one death. In the 48367 (Lakeville, Lenard and Addison Township), there are nine reported cases and zero deaths.
Oakland County’s COVID-19 webpage has this prefix, “This data is not a complete picture of community exposure since it only reflects actual test results. Testing capacity has been limited to date. All parts of the county should strictly adhere to Stay at Home Order and practice all safety guidance when needing to visit an essential business. This map will be updated in the evening as data is received.”
