Due to the recent increase in COVID-19 cases, Clark County has been moved to a level 3 risk on the Ohio Public Health Advisory System.

“This means that there is a very high risk for exposure and spread of COVID-19 and all residents should limit activities as much as possible,” the Clark County Combined Health District (CCCHD) posted on their Facebook page.
