ALPENA — District Health Department No. 4 is advising those who shopped at the Alpena Walmart from 8 p.m. to close on May 4 or the Auto Value in Oscoda Township in the late afternoon on May 2 to monitor for symptoms of COVID-19 because a person known to be infected was in those places at those times.

Meanwhile, the Health Department announced one more Alpena County resident is confirmed infected with the coronavirus.

That means 108 Northeast Michigan residents have been confirmed infected with COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, including 88 Alpena County residents, 11 Presque Isle County residents, five Montmorency county residents, and four Alcona County residents.

No new deaths or recoveries were reported for Northeast Michigan. Eight infected Alpena County residents and one Alcona County resident have died while infected with COVID-19.

Four Northeast Michigan residents have recovered from the virus, including two Presque Isle County residents, one Alpena County resident, and one Montmorency county resident. Recovered means people are living symptom-free a month after they were confirmed infected.

The state reported 469 new confirmed infections and 90 deaths on Tuesday, bringing the total to 48,021 infected and 4,674 dead statewide.
