The Ohio Department of Health has issued a 2021 Holiday Guide filled with recommendations for the health and safety of the public as we continue to battle COVID-19 and its variants. Please be advised these are recommendations only. As we have since the early days of the pandemic, we continue to encourage you to practice the various mitigation efforts of getting vaccinated, good hand hygiene, social distancing, and the use of masks. Ohio's hospitalizations are increasing at this time, as are overall cases, most likely due to the gatherings over the Thanksgiving holiday. It is our hope that you will follow these efforts to keep yourself and your family healthy and safe over the holidays. Be safe, Greene County!Full Story
