COLUMBUS, Ohio - Ohio has 119 confirmed cases of coronavirus in Ohio, surpassing the 100 mark for the first time, according to the Ohio Department of Health’s Thursday afternoon update, including 33 hospitalizations.

“We are definitely on the upslope now,” Ohio Department of Health Director Dr. Amy Acton said.

On Wednesday, 88 people had tested positive and 26 were hospitalized.

Twenty-four counties in Ohio had a confirmed case:

In the U.S., the number of infections surpassed the 10,000 mark to over 10,700 on Thursday afternoon. Over 150 people have died.

In Ohio and the U.S., the number of actual infections is believed to be much higher than confirmed cases because there is not enough testing capacity.

The vast majority of people who get sick will not be tested, but will stay at home and communicate with their doctors.

Gov. Mike DeWine and other state officials were expected to give an update to the coronavirus situation and the state’s response at 2:30 p.m.
