Gov. DeWine‘s next press conference is scheduled for Tuesday, but on Twitter Monday, he once again reminded everyone that the fight against COVID-19 isn’t over. Ohioans are reminded to wash their hands often, wear a cloth face covering when out with friends, stay six-feet apart from others, and stay home when sick.
