Wood County has 24 confirmed cases of COVID-19

Wood County now has 24 residents who have tested positive for COVID-19, according to the daily update from the Wood County Health Department on Saturday, April 4.

Of those 24 people, 14 are hospitalized. As of Friday, Wood County Hospital had two patients who tested positive for COVID-19. Those not hospitalized are staying isolated in their homes.

They range in age from 20 to 74, with the median age of 57. Fourteen are female, 10 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 24 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 3,739 cases, with 1,006 hospitalizations and 102 deaths. The age range has been 1 to 101 years old.
