@lookner Yet here in eastern WA state we're being ignored. They refuse to test anyone here. SO many ppl in my town are sick. Ppl are panicking, stores are sold out/packed w ppl, yet nothing from gov so ppl still sending kids to school, all sports going, huge events, etc!
Probably would've been better to close the schools and ban the large events weeks ago when experts told us what was coming & before the virus spread across the country, but hey, what can you do
This is huge: Ohio Health Dept. Director Amy Acton is saying that evidence of community spread indicates that 1% of Ohioans are currently carrying coronavirus. That's *117,000* people.
Only 5 in Ohio have actually tested positive to this point.
