CLEVELAND — Thousands of appointments have been opened at the COVID-19 mass vaccination clinic in Cleveland, Gov. Mike DeWine announced.

“We want to ensure that every Ohioan who wants to be vaccinated - no matter where they live - has the opportunity to get the vaccine, and our community partners are crucial in our efforts to make that happen,” DeWine said.
