The recent outbreak and spread of Coronavirus or COVID-19 has prompted a lot of media attention as well as questions and concerns on the impact it may have on schools.
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine announced Tuesday afternoon that all indoor sporting events in Ohio, including high school, collegiate and professional sports, shall continue without most spectators in attendance as Ohio seeks to contain the spread of the coronavirus COVID-19.
“This will be a very difficult time for our schools and fans, but we cannot ignore the directive of the Governor,” OHSAA Executive Director Jerry Snodgrass said.
“We are pleased that our tournaments can continue and we will soon determine who can attend. However, we can already say that it will most likely be no more than the immediate family of the student-athletes participating in the event.”
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine and Dr. Amy Action, Director of the Ohio Department of Health announced that there are three confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Ohio, all in Cuyahoga County.
Governor DeWine also declared a State of Emergency, which he described as a necessary legal step that enables government to do what is necessary to respond quickly, and also makes it easier to procure needed supplies.
According to Allen County Health Commissioner Kathy Luhn, “This is what we have expected. We continue to work with our local and state partners to protect our community.”
