COLUMBUS, Ohio – Ohio in the last week reported fewer new coronavirus cases than during any seven-day period since July 3-9, with the totals to date rising Monday to 109,062 cases, 12,319 hospitalizations and 3,832 deaths.
This means that 1-in-107 Ohioans is now known to have contracted the virus at some point this year.
The seven-day average for newly reported cases in Ohio has dipped to 1,047, from a high of 1,373 on July 18. And the 613 and 775 new coronavirus cases reported by the Ohio Department of Health the last two days were the fewest single-day totals since June 30.
Separately, data from the Ohio Hospital Association showed the number of patients has continued to trend down, with the average patient count over the last week at 941 – the lowest point since July 14.
The patient count ran as high as 1,122 on July 28. But before the July surge in cases, the patient count was as low as 516 on June 15.
There were 316 patients in ICU beds on Monday, though the total is subject to revision once more data is received from reporting hospitals across the state. The ICU patient count was over 500 on several days in April before dipping to near 200 in June.
Over the last week, the number of deaths increased by 159, or 4.3%, from the previous Monday’s total of 3,673.
Deaths reported daily were 6, 2, 40, 29, 21, 26 and 35. The reports lag several days from the actual date of death and sometimes are reported by the state in clusters.
Cases were up in the last week by 7,331, or 7.2%. This compares with increases the last five weeks of 7,768, 8,786, 9,009 and 9,315 and 8,897.
Ohio added 62.7 cases per 100,000 people in the last week. This rate exceeded 100 in a nine counties – Madison (462.8), Mercer (167.6), Darke (144.8), Preble (134.5), Allen (125.1), Perry (121.8), Shelby (117.3), Sandusky (112.8) and Lawrence (112.7).
Cuyahoga County continues to improve, dropping to 63 new cases per 100,000, or right about the statewide average of 62.7
Gov. Mike DeWine has attributed the increase in cases during the summer to both increased testing and a new spread of the virus.
The state reported that 1,843,274 tests have been conducted to date. This includes 161,003 in the last week, in comparison to 151,694, 191,028 and 161,853 the previous three weeks. During the last week of May, about 60,000 tests were conducted.
Ohio estimates 87,764 people identified with coronavirus have recovered. This is not based on individual case information, but on the number of cases at least three weeks old that have not resulted in death.
The state is now reporting that the onset of symptoms was as early as January for 46 cases. The four earliest cases date to Jan. 2 in Erie, Licking Mahoning and Warren counties.
The age range for cases is from under 1 to 109, with a median age of 42. The median age for deaths is 80.
The cases trended younger during the summer, with the median age for all cases dropping from 50 in mid-May.
For all cases this year, more than three-fourths the deaths have been to people age 70 and up, with 943 (25%) in their 70s and 2,000 (52%) at least 80 years old. Those 80 and up accounted for 44% of deaths from all causes nationally in 2017.
Death totals for other age groups are 541 in their 60s, 237 in their 50s, 66 in their 40s, 30 in their 30s, 13 in their 20s, and two under 20.
But for hospitalizations, the cases are more spread out: 2,242 age 80 or above, 2,394 in their 70s, 2,620 their 60s, 2,150 in their 50s, 1,197 in their 40s, 855 in their 30s, 618 in their 20s and 238 younger.
The counties with the most deaths are Franklin (537), Cuyahoga (528), Lucas (329), Hamilton (270), Mahoning (260) and Summit (228).
For the deaths in which race was reported, 78% are white, and 19% are black. Yet for total cases, 59% are white and 27% black. Ohio’s population is 82% white and 13% black, census estimates say.
Among all cases reported to date, 12,319 have been hospitalized, including 2,786 in intensive care units. A week earlier, these totals were 11,629 and 2,680, meaning that in the last week the state learned of 690 new hospitalizations, with 106 new admissions to ICUs.
The counties with the most cases are Franklin (19,683), Cuyahoga (14,418) and Hamilton (10,184). They are the state’s three largest counties. Cases per capita are shown in the chart at the bottom of this story.
The first three cases were confirmed on March 9. The total topped 100 on March 19, 1,000 on March 27, 10,000 on April 18, 50,000 on June 28 and 100,000 on Aug. 9.
The state on April 10 began new reporting standards to include more types of testing and cases identified from non-testing evidence. This has resulted in 5,742 “probable” cases being included in the total cases reported for Ohio to date.
Corrections in the data are made from day to day by the state. Sometimes the state has reduced the number of cases in individual counties from one day to the next as corrected residency information is received.
The chart below is based on the most recent case data from the Ohio Department of Health. Cleveland.com calculated the cases per 100,000 rates based on 2019 census population estimates.
