Current DeWine Covid update presser. Essentially every county and city are grown ups and

even though COVID cases in the State are dramatically growing he, the gov, is not going to mandate masks or anything. He is confident that the citizens understand the data he is providing and will take safe measures and wear masks etc, stay away from bars and other large gatherings.

Hahahahahahahahaha.

My son and his family live in Cleveland. Thank the stars above they are smart enough to wear masks and take precautions.

So he is afraid to add fuel to the fire.

Pretty chickenshit, if you ask me.

It is supposed to be updated every day at 2 pm. I've seen it updated late before, but never this late. I try to check it every day to keep track of the statistics.

Weekly deaths have been going down the past few weeks. Looks like they are going up this week.

traffic signals, signage, etc. and advise the public that knowing the resulting dangers of driving, they are the ones who should choose to drive or not. Hell, let's just get rid of driver's licenses, too — it's a dangerous world out there but the public can decide what's right for them.

Do it, DeWine! Trump's cultists around here have declared that you're a "RINO" anyway!

I'm in one of the "Level 3" counties in Ohio, by the way. Trust me, the idiots around here have earned it with their no-mask and no-distancing stupidity! (Observed from my car.)

I see most people masked up at the Giant Eagle near me. I haven’t ventured out to many other stores besides that and Walmart for months. It’s real hit-and-miss.

A few times I sit in the car while my husband runs into Lowe’s or Home Depot, those hardware stores are the worst. I see (mostly) the men going in and out from my observation point and hardly a mask to be seen anywhere. De Wine needs to mandate masks and issue fines for not wearing them. Trouble is, he and Dr. Acton are being sued, so he’s afraid to rock the boat now. Chickenshit!!
