Ohio's health director surprisingly resigned Thursday.

Meanwhile, despite fears of outbreaks as Ohio reopened for business over the past several weeks amid the coronavirus pandemic, cases of the potentially deadly infection have fallen by one-third from early May.

Testing for the virus increased 58% from an average of 7,002 a day in early May to 11,098 a day this month through Wednesday. “We’re making progress.” DeWine said, pointing out free testing being made available in minority neighborhoods, including in Columbus. The state is posting testing locations online.

Both DeWine and Acton expressed fears of a rebound of virus infections as more people interacted. But the reopening has not been accompanied — to this point — by a spike in cases.
