In Ohio they had the head of the state association of hospitals float the idea at a press conference. He seemed to talking about the possibility taking floors of existing hotels and using them for non COVID19 patients that didn't require super urgent care so that wouldn't be in danger of getting infected if/when the hospitals begin to fill up with people dealing with COVID19. They also asked doctors, dentists and vets to not perform and non-essential operations so we could preserve the stockpile if protective gear. I hope other states take more of the actions that Ohio has been doing and find it insane that 3 states held in person primaries during a pandemic whereas Ohio delayed it as a public health emergency and Georgia did something similar a week or so ago. Public health matters.

- Jeema101 7y agoOhioan here. DeWine (governor of Ohio) actually ordered the primary halted in defiance of a court order on Monday. It was only later that night that the Ohio Supreme Court sided with him, but the election was kind of already thrown into disarray by then. We need more leaders like him who are willing to take personal risks during this crisis. I say this as a Democrat by the way.
- _dark_matter_ 7y ago100% agreed. Fellow democratic Ohioan, and I am extremely proud of the way DeWine is handling this situation. It really helps me and my family breathe a sigh of relief to know our state government puts our health interests first.
