COLUMBUS, Ohio — There were 300 new coronavirus cases reported in Ohio Sunday and just three COVID-19-related deaths, the lowest numbers reported by the state since late March.

The Cleveland Department of Public Health was notified of 14 new positive COVID-19 test results in residents of the city and three new fatalities. There have been a total of 1,817 confirmed cases in Cleveland and 74 fatalities.
