dskolnick@tribtoday.com The state is expected today to exceed two COVID-19 milestones: more than 4 million people who have at least started the vaccination process and more than 2.5 million fully vaccinated. Three weeks ago, 2,241,145 people in the state had at least one dose and 1,294,451 were fully vaccinated. Those numbers as of Friday were 3,985,578 and 2,459,145, respectively, according to the Ohio Department of Health. But Ohio still is experiencing high numbers of COVID-19 cases, with Gov. Mike DeWine saying the state is “moving in the wrong direction.” The 3,985,578 people who at least had started the vaccination process as of 6 a.m. Friday is 34.1 percent of the state’s population, according to the ODH. It includes 75,534 starting the process in the previous 24 hours.
