No new COVID-19 deaths were reported across the state on Sunday.

This is the first time the state has reported no COVID-19-related deaths since the pandemic began in mid-March. The death total remains at 4,925.

The Ohio Department of Health reported 158,907 cases Sunday, an increase of 941 from Saturday. Total hospitalizations are up to 15,767, an increase of 32. Of the hospitalizations, 3,319 of them are ICU admissions, the ODH reported.

Mahoning County has the most cases locally with 3,223. There have been 505 hospitalizations and 282 deaths.

Trumbull County has totaled 1,990 cases, 348 hospitalizations and 132 deaths.

Columbiana County also is approaching the 2,000 mark, with 1,981 cases reported on Sunday — an increase of just one — and 82 deaths.

Gov. Mike DeWine’s next update on the state’s fight against the coronavirus is scheduled Tuesday.

“The case number is very alarming. The-21 day average is back over 1,000, and we do not like to see that,” DeWine said Friday during an update. The increase had dropped below 1,000 to start the week.

DeWine, his wife Fran, and Lt. Gov. Jon Husted all tested negative for coronavirus Friday. The three were tested following the announcement that President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump tested positive for COVID-19.

During last week’s briefing, DeWine expressed concern that the positivity rate in the state may be on the rise again.

“We’re watching that. We don’t know if it’s a long-term trend,” he said.

Dr. Abigail Norris-Turner from Ohio State University told of an effort on behalf of the ODH to create a benchmark tracking the spread of the virus in the state. She spoke last week about efforts to determine whether a person could contract COVID-19 a second time, which remains largely unclear.
