Ohio has topped 200,000 cases of the virus since the pandemic began and as of Tuesday, there are 18,433 hospitalizations. What does our region need to do right now to reverse this trend?

Joining Cincinnati Edition to discuss the numbers are Hamilton County Health Commissioner Greg Kesterman; and UC Health Senior Vice President and Chief Medical Officer Evaline Alessandrini, MD, MSCE.
