CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) - The director for the Ohio Department of Health, Dr. Bruce Vanderhoff, held a regular COVID-19 briefing on Thursday morning.

During his remarks, Dr. Vanderhoff announced that the Ohio Department of Health will no longer provide daily updates to the state’s COVID-19 data.

Beginning next week, coronavirus-related statistics and case numbers will be released by the Ohio Department of Health on Thursdays.

Data will be reported either weekly or bi-weekly, each Thursday.

The director’s briefing on Thursday was held as Ohio marked approximately two years since several of the state’s first COVID-19 cases were reported.
