Some important testimony in Ohio Statehouse this morning as health officials, including the new chief medical officer of @OHdeptofhealth, speaking out against SB311
Bill would prevent ODH from issuing widespread quarantine orders & allows lawmakers to rescind other orders.

311 has already passed Senate. It's moved quickly thru House committee this week ahead of today's floor session.
90 minutes of opposition testimony allotted this morning. Important bill to keep an eye on today.

Folks, I cannot tell you how different it feels to hear actual expert testimony on a COVID-19 related bill
Last night's SB311 testimony came from anti-vaxxer groups, with one fellow claiming contact tracing involved ppl with guns going door-to-door threatening Ohioans.

We're more than halfway thru the allotted time limit for opposition testimony and still on the first person.
This bill is likely to advance from committee with only 1-2 people speaking against.
