The good news is Michigan’s COVID-19 infection rates and hospitalizations are down, compared to where they were at this time in March. The bad news. So are vaccination rates.  Today, we check in with two health officials in very different Michigan communities that are tackling the same problems -- misinformation and distrust. We talk with Detroit’s chief public health official about the challenges in the state’s biggest city. And we check in with one of the state’s more rural areas where there’s still a lot of people who need convincing.    GUESTS:  Rebecca Burns, health officer for the Branch-Hillsdale-St. Joseph Community Health Agency  Denise Fair, chief public health officer for the Detroit Health Department    NOTES: Looking for more conversations from Stateside?
