Wood County now has 18 residents who have tested positive for COVID-19, according to the daily update from the Wood County Health Department on Thursday, April 2.
Of those 18 people, 11 are hospitalized. Two are in Wood County Hospital. Those not hospitalized are staying isolated in their homes.
They range in age from 20 to 71, with the median age of 57. Eleven are female, seven are male.
The tests are not readily available in Wood County, so local officials predict there are many more people here with the virus.
No additional information about the 18 Wood County residents will be provided by the health department in order to protect their privacy. A Rossford city official released information last week that the first two cases in the county involved residents of that community.
As of today, Ohio has 2,902 cases, with 802 hospitalizations and 81 deaths. The age range has been 1 to 99 years old.
