Ohio's infection rate dropped to 3.2% after the mask mandate. [View all]

That is, the percentage of tested people who show Covid-positive results. It's now lower than most states in the country, other than the Northeast, Michigan, New Mexico, etc.

Now the high schools are playing football again... approved by Gov. DeWine.

Saw coverage on the local news. The players on the football fields are not wearing masks during blocks, tackles, etc. (Closer than they'd likely be with another person anywhere, other than during sex!)

The crowds and the players on the sidelines wore masks, but without social distancing.

I'm expecting more outbreaks and an increase in Ohio's infection rate again! Ugh!
