* Of the 752 deaths being reported today, 428 are deaths of Ohio residents who died out of state. Other states do not send these death certificates to ODH’s Bureau of Vital Statistics on a regular schedule and therefore fluctuations will be reflected in reported mortality data. Deaths are assigned to their appropriate date of death.
