Ohio has 3 times the number of COVID-19 hospitalizations it had on Nov. 1 and nearly 7 times the number it had on Oct. 1

Here are updates on Ohio's response to the COVID-19 pandemic from the governor's office. 

VACCINATION PHASES
Because the availability of the vaccine remains limited in Ohio and across the country, Ohio is taking a phased approach that prioritizes the most vulnerable citizens, those in the healthcare field, and school staff members.

Phase 1A, which is currently underway, includes approximately 1 million Ohioans. 

It is anticipated that vaccine distribution in Phase 1B will begin as Phase 1A begins to wind down. 

But, weather-wise it was pretty ho-hum

Although 2020 will be remembered by many as a year to forget, weatherwise, the year appeared rather ho-hum. And, given 2020, otherwise, we’ll take it.,

The most immediate improvement discussed is installation of turf at War Memorial Field

The Liberty Township Park District Board and Ada Schools have been meeting to discuss renewal of the school contract with the park board for use of facilities.

Part of the talks have been about ways to improve the fields and facilities going forward to improve usability and safety for many athletic teams.

While talks have included strategic planning for improvements to be made in the future, the most immediate improvement discussed is the installation of turf at the Ada War Memorial Field.

So, you think you know Ada. Here's the answer.

Available to staff, residents and family members

Vancrest staff, residents and family members had several covid-19 vaccine questions answered recently, in part by a video that provided information.

Vancrest physician, Dr. Alisa Marzec, and Jessica England, Vancrest's certified nurse practitioner, created the video.

According to Vancrest Facebook, "The video provides answers to some of the most commonly asked questions and hopefully gives clarification to many people.

"If you have any more questions about the COVID vaccine, please call our facility and we will be happy to help answer those."

So, you think you know Ada? Okay, where is this? Answer tomorrow.
