COLUMBUS, Ohio – Friday, with 1,560 newly reported Ohio coronavirus cases, marked the 17th consecutive day over the 1,000 plateau, and the seven-day total for deaths reached its highest level since early June, Ohio Department of Health data showed.
The state reported 185 deaths in the last week, including 41 on Friday, up from a recent low of 80 for the seven-day period ending July 17. Yet, despite the increase, this number remains well below the high for a seven-day period of 354 at the end of April.
Deaths reported daily the previous six days were 21, 16, 30, 15, 42 and 20. The reports lag several days from the actual date of death and sometimes are reported by the state in clusters. Ohio has reported 3,112 deaths since the first cases in March.
One-in-143 Ohioans are now known to have contracted the virus this year.
The case trend began to rise a little more than a month ago. The rolling seven-day average for new cases – a method to look at the trends to smooth out for issues such as delays in lab or paperwork – was as low as 381 on June 12 before rising to 1,373 on Saturday. It stood at 1,352 after Friday’s report.
Separately, data from the Ohio Hospital Association on Friday showed a rise for both total hospitalizations and patients in intensive care units over the last week.
Total coronavirus patients on Friday was reported at 1,085, in comparison to 1,017 one week ago and 927 two weeks ago. The number of those patients in intensive care was 354, up from 317 and 286 the last two Fridays.
The total patient count was as low as 516 on June 15, with the low for ICU patients of 200 on June 24.
Cases were up in the last week by 9,466, or 13,1%, from 72,280.
Ohio added 81 cases per 100,000 people in the last week, though this rate exceeded 100 in eight counties large and small – Mercer (228.3 per 100,000), Lucas (147.3), Ottawa (145.6), Henry (144.4), Franklin (143.5), Fairfield (116.8), Wood (116.2) and Hancock (106.9).
Cuyahoga County dropped below this threshold to 96.3 new cases per 100,000 residents in the last week.
Gov. Mike DeWine has attributed the increase in cases to both increased testing and a new spread of the virus.
The state reported that 1,263,191 tests have been conducted to date. This includes 151,172 in the last week, in comparison to 156,322, 131,216 and 106,395 the previous three weeks.
The state health department last updated the number of deaths for nursing home patients on Wednesday, with a total of 2,237, representing 69% of all known COVID-19 deaths in Ohio at that point.
The case total includes 103 state prison inmates currently with coronavirus; 4,293 others have recovered and 88 who have died, the prison department reported Thursday.
Ohio recently began estimating the number of coronavirus cases “recovered” statewide, placing that estimate at 56,823 on Friday. 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 37 cases. The three earliest cases date were Jan. 2 in Erie, 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 have been trending younger in recent weeks, 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 818 (25%) in their 70s and 1,709 (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 465 in their 60s, 211 in their 50s, 57 in their 40s, 24 in their 30s, 11 in their 20s, and two under 20.
But for hospitalizations, the cases are more spread out: 1,827 age 80 or above, 1,928 in their 70s, 2,159 in their 60s, 1,789 in their 50s, 988 in their 40s, 708 in their 30s, 483 in their 20s and 187 younger.
The counties with the most deaths are Franklin (487), Cuyahoga (450), Lucas (311), Mahoning (244), Hamilton (224) and Summit (212).
For the deaths in which race was reported, 77% are white, and 20% are black. Yet for total cases, 56% are white and 30% black. Ohio’s population is 82% white and 13% black, census estimates say.
Among all cases reported to date, 10,072 have been hospitalized, including 2,419 in intensive care units. A week earlier, these totals were 9,445 and 2,305, meaning that in the last week the state learned of 627 new hospitalizations, with 114 new admissions to ICUs.
The counties with the most cases are Franklin (15,301), Cuyahoga (11,404) and Hamilton (8,325). 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 and 50,000 on June 28.
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 4,437 “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.
