#COVID19 Testing: Testing is limited. It will, in all likelihood, remain limited. But please, do not fixate on testing. The vast majority of Ohioans who have symptoms do not need to be tested for the virus. If you are feeling symptoms, you should act like you have it.
If you are feeling symptoms of #COVID19 , the most responsible, heroic, patriotic thing you can do is stay home. Your family should stay home. If your symptoms worsen - especially if you have difficultly breathing - you should go to the ER.
We must reserve the testing for those who are the sickest and the most at risk. #COVID19
Efficiently using our testing to better understand the spread of the virus. This has to be done in a targeted way. Here is the truth: With our without a test the virus is here. It lives among us. And we must be at war with it. We're at war with a very dangerous, lethal enemy.
#COVID19's mission is to reproduce. But it can't do its damage without us. We have it within our own control how fast it spreads and how widespread it spreads. We have our own safety and that of our fellow citizens in our own hands.
This enemy is dangerous and it is using us as its host to survive and multiply --- but we do have it among our ability to fight back. When we stop moving, it stops moving! Each one of us must do all we can to limit our exposure. #COVID19OhioReady #FlattenTheCurve
Everyone is in this fight. We don't need to go into the battlefield -- we simply need to stay home. Have space, no matter where we are. We need to stay socially connected but physically separated. #COVID19 #COVID19OhioReady #FlattenTheCurve
It will take every one of us to win this battle! Our goal every day is to slow the spread of #COVID19.
