Notes

Post-period instrument saved as the written successor to Whitehall's Sept. 10, 2021 mandate (announced Sept. 8, 2021 with Bexley); recitals: 'the central Ohio regional hospital systems are running out beds and staff to take care of COVID-19 patients and the surge of the Delta variant is impacting medical care throughout Ohio'.
