When DeWine was asked at the briefing whether masks could be required in certain areas, he said: “We’re not there yet. We hope we do not get there. This is a discussion that we will have, that our health department will have with their health department.”

Seriously??? States that require masks have flattened the curve, but we have too many cov-idiots who confuse public health with their "constatooshunal rights" to spread infection wherever they travel.

Helpful Jon Husted was on Twitter today encouraging the use of masks citing a Lancet article from June 1--so why wait until the END of June to say something???
