Governor Mike DeWine speaks in front of Wolfe Mountain
Entertainment during Meigs County’s Bicentennial
celebration in 2019.

An order issued late
Thursday by Ohio Director of Health Dr. Amy
Acton extended Ohio’s
latest stay at home order
through May 29.
The order also reopens
some businesses, with
exceptions in what is titled
the “Director’s Stay Safe
Ohio” order.
A modiﬁcation to the
previous order, medical
providers, including dentists, were permitted to
resume surgeries and procedures, on Friday, as long

as an inpatient or overnight stay is not required.
Manufacturing, distribution and construction
businesses which were
previously ordered to
cease operations may
reopen on May 4. General ofﬁce environments
may also reopen on May
4, but, the order states
that businesses should
“strongly encourage” as
many employees as possible to work from home
by implementing policies
such as teleworking and
video conferencing.
Retail establishments
and facilities may reopen

on May 12, but some
retail operations were
permitted beginning at
the end of the day on
Friday. “Currently closed
retail establishments and
facilities, that will restrict
their operations to curbside pickup, delivery or
appointment-only (limited to 10 customers at
any one time) may reopen
effective May 1 at 11:59
p.m.,” the order states.
DeWine stated during
the news conference on
Friday at the curbside,
delivery and appointment options beginning
now are in response to a

request from businesses.
Businesses and operations which remain closed
include: schools; restaurants and bars (other
than carry out or delivery); personal appearance
and beauty businesses
including salons, spas,
barber shops, tattoo parlors and tanning facilities;
adult day support or vocational habitation services
in a congregate setting;
other adult day care services and senior centers;
childcare services; and

With the COVID-19
pandemic, it is important to wash your hands,
stay home unless it is
essential, and maintain
social distancing of six
feet or more to keep
each other healthy. Our
every-day lives have
changed signiﬁcantly
with the pandemic, but
health being a priority
has not changed. And,
if your health has not
been a priority, now is
the time to change that.
Immune health is heavily
inﬂuenced by physical
activity and it is possible
to maintain physical
activity, even during the
pandemic.
Physical activity has
been proven to boost the
immune system, reduce
stress and increase
endorphins. Now, more
than ever, it is important
to strive for a positive
attitude, ﬁll boredom

OU researchers win grant for COVID-19 study

From page 1

ATHENS, Ohio (April
30, 2020) – Faculty
researchers from Ohio
University’s Heritage
College of Osteopathic
Medicine and Russ College of Engineering
and Technology have
received a $100,000
grant to investigate
possible treatments for
mitigating the severity
of COVID-19.
Kelly McCall, Ph.D.,
and Douglas Goetz,
Ph.D., will measure how
effective a number of
different chemical compounds are at preventing
“cytokine storms,” a
sometimes-fatal complication that can stem
from COVID-19 infections.
The body responds
to the presence of a
pathogen by releasing a
swarm of immune system proteins called cytokines to help ﬁght off
the virus or bacterium.
If too many cytokines
are released, a cytokine
storm develops which
can severely damage
organs. This reaction is
believed to be responsible for some of the
deaths from COVID-19.
McCall is a professor
in the Heritage College
Department of Specialty
Medicine and an investigator with its Diabetes
Institute, and Goetz is
a professor of chemical and biomolecular
engineering in the Russ
College.
Their award is a Fast
Grant from Emergent
Ventures, a fellowship
and grant program at
the Mercatus Center of
George Mason University in Virginia. On April
7 the Center announced
a grant program to provide funding for research
on COVID-19. Reﬂecting
the urgency of the worldwide search for ways
to treat the pandemic,

Goetz and McCall wrote
the grant application in
just three days, and it
was approved within just
a few days of its submission.
“This is exciting and
welcome news,” said
Ohio University President M. Duane Nellis,
Ph.D. “The University
has been eager to lend
the expertise of our
scientists to the urgent,
cooperative global effort
now underway to contain and treat COVID19. We’re grateful to
Emergent Ventures’
Fast Grants program for
recognizing the merits
of Dr. McCall and Dr.
Goetz’s research proposal so quickly.”
According to Goetz
and McCall, inhibiting
the action of GSK-3
enzymes, highly active
catalysts believed to play
a role in producing cytokine storms, might help
prevent the storms. A
handful of GSK-3 inhibitors have been or are
now being used in clinical trials; the researchers will be testing the
effectiveness of ﬁve of
these compounds.
“I’m extremely grateful
to Emergent Ventures
for creating the opportunity for scientists from
all over the world to
work toward combating
this devastating pandemic,” Goetz said. “I’m also
thankful for my longtime
colleague Dr. McCall
and the talented Russ
College students and
Heritage College scientists who have put us in
an excellent position to
make a contribution to
this endeavor.”
McCall noted that the
grant proposal stemmed
from research she,
Goetz and colleagues
have been working on
for years: studying how
toll-like receptors, a

class of proteins that
play an important role
in the immune system,
are involved in producing cytokine storms. As
part of this research,
they have developed
some compounds that
are highly effective at
inhibiting the action of
an enzyme known as
GSK-3.
“We realized that
these GSK-3 inhibitors
may act to block the
cytokine storm that can
be induced by pathogens
such as viruses and bacteria,” McCall explained.
Given the suspected
role of cytokine storms
in COVID-19 fatalities,
Goetz and McCall realized that GSK-3 inhibitors might be used as a
treatment.
They aim to test inhibitors already approved
for safety, given how
long it takes to get federal approval for a new
drug for humans.
“Our hope is, if those

then hopefully it will
save people’s lives in
the short term,” McCall
said.
In the aftermath of
the 2003 SARS epidemic (a less pervasive
coronavirus disease),
researchers utilized the
“spike protein” from the
SARS virus and found
that the protein itself
can trigger an innate
immune response which
is germane to cytokine
storms. McCall and
Goetz plan to take a similar approach, introducing
the COVID-19 virus’s
spike protein to different
types of cells, with and
without the presence of
an inhibitor, then comparing the levels of cytokines produced in each
case. The spike protein
projects from the surface
of the virus and helps it

to families affected by this health crisis. The purpose of this assistance
will be to offset costs incurred by families who have lost employment
and/or reduced hours on or after March 9, 2020 due to the company
shut-down as a result of the Stay At Home order issued by the governor
or other issues related to COVID-19 that resulted in a lack of available
work.

Adapting to the pandemic
By Lorna Hart
Special to OVP

EAST LETART, OHIO
— In the midst of uncertainty and social isolation, Spring offers the
opportunity to go outside
and spend time in the
fresh air. Some are going
for walks or hiking, others have tuned up their
bicycles, motorcycles or
ATVs.
For gardeners, the urge
to plant takes precedent,
and for many years the
spring opening of Darrell
Norris and Son Greenhouses has been a highly
anticipated event. Many
were wondering if they
might have to forgo the
opportunity to shop for
their favorite plants and
vegetables during the current pandemic.
Those concerns have
been put to rest, and this
season customers are
enjoying the experience
in a COVID-19 compliant
environment at Norris
Greenhouses. Their opening in April literally gave
planters from all over
Southeast Ohio a breath
of fresh air.
The outbreak of
COVID-19 required the
operation to make a few
changes, including curbside pickup of orders by
request, limiting the number of guests in the greenhouse at one time, and
the addition of plexiglass
at the checkout counter.
Employees wear masks,
and a hand washing station has been installed at

It has also been common to stop awhile and

OHSAA volleyball divisions released

Bryan Walters|OVP Sports

River Valley’s Mikenzi Pope, right, leaps for a spike attempt during a TVC Ohio
match against Athens on Sept. 10, 2019, in Bidwell, Ohio.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — It’s
going to be more of the same
… as long as the fall sports
season becomes a reality.
All six local volleyball programs ended up landing in
the same spots they were in
a year ago with the release of
the 2020 Ohio High School
Athletic Association divisional
assignments for volleyball.
Provided a return to normalcy, half of the Ohio Valley
Publishing area’s programs
will again be competing at the
Division II level. Those teams
include Gallia Academy, River
Valley and Meigs.
Eastern will once again be
the area’s lone Division III
program, while South Gallia
and Southern are once again
in their traditional spots in the

Division IV level.
In fact, there were no divisional changes in volleyball for
any program in the Tri-Valley
Conference Ohio or Hocking divisions, as well as zero
changes in the Ohio Valley
Conference either.
Eastern and Federal Hocking remain as the lone D-3
programs in the TVC Hocking,
while the league is rounded
out by D-4 programs Southern, South Gallia, Waterford,
Belpre and Trimble.
Neither Wahama nor Miller
are members of the TVC Hocking headed into the 2020-21
school year.
River Valley and Meigs
join Vinton County and Athens as D-2 members in the
TVC Ohio, with Alexander,

Wellston and Nelsonville-York
completing the league as Division III schools.
Gallia Academy is the lone
D-2 competitor within OVC
play. Chesapeake, Ironton,
Fairland, Coal Grove, South
Point, Rock Hill and Portsmouth again enter the volleyball season as D-3 programs.
The only signiﬁcant changes
within the southeast portion
of the state occurred with
Marietta and Chillicothe being
moved up from D-2 to Division I.
Visit ohsaa.org on the web
for complete lists of the 2020
divisional assignments for volleyball.

several of the franchise’s passing records but
couldn’t lead Cincinnati deep into the playoffs.
The move Thursday gives Dalton, who had a
year left on his deal, a chance to compete for a
job with another team.
It also clears the way for Burrow to start
fresh on a team that hasn’t won a playoff game
since the 1990 season, the ﬁfth-longest stretch
of futility in NFL history.
Dalton led Cincinnati to its best stretch of
playoff appearances — ﬁve straight from 201115 — but couldn’t get that elusive win. As the
offensive line deteriorated and top receiver A.J.
Green sustained a series of injuries, Dalton’s
results suffered, too.
“Andy will always hold a special place with
this franchise, and I know that he holds a special place in my heart,” owner Mike Brown
said. “This is a hard day for our club because
we know and appreciate what a consummate
professional Andy has always been. We respect
and appreciate Andy, and we thank him.”
Dalton was a second-round pick in 2011
when quarterback Carson Palmer demanded
a trade and threatened to retire rather than
continue playing for the Bengals. Dalton and
Green, Cincinnati’s ﬁrst-round pick that year,
led Cincinnati to its best stretch of playoff
appearances.
The Bengals lost in the ﬁrst round each time,
setting an NFL record. Dalton had a broken
thumb and was sidelined for the last of those
playoff appearances, which ended in a last-minute meltdown and an 18-16 loss to Pittsburgh
during the 2015 season.
Dalton was one of the NFL’s most efﬁcient
passers when given a solid supporting cast. He
led the AFC with a 106.3 passer rating in 2015,
a single-season Bengals record.
Coach Zac Taylor signaled the end of Dalton’s career in Cincinnati by benching him for
three games midway through last year’s 2-14
season, a move that shocked Dalton and his
longtime teammates. Dalton was upset the Bengals didn’t try to trade him before the deadline.
Rookie Ryan Finley started the next three
games and was even worse, prompting Taylor
to reinstate Dalton as the starter for the rest of
the season. Dalton led the Bengals to their two
wins.
When Cincinnati drafted Burrow ﬁrst overall
last week, the question was whether the Bengals would keep Dalton for the ﬁnal year on his
contract and use him to mentor the rookie, or
let him try to win a starting job with another
team.
Dalton, 32, holds Bengals career records
for touchdown passes (204) and completions
(2,757), surpassing Ken Anderson — who also
wore No. 14 — for both marks. He also holds
club marks for career passer rating (87.5) and
games with 300 yards passing (28). His 24
game-winning drives also are the most by a
Bengals quarterback.
His 70-61-2 record as a starter is second
best by a Bengals quarterback with at least 10
starts, trailing Virgil Carter.
Dalton also holds single-season team records
for yards passing (4,293 in 2013) and touchdowns (33 in 2013).

NASCAR to resume season May 17 with seven races in 10 days
CHARLOTTE, N.C.
(AP) — NASCAR plans
to restart its engines with
a ﬂurry of races at two
historic tracks.

NASCAR said Thursday it is set to return
May 17 with an elite Cup
Series race at Darlington Raceway in South

Carolina, the ﬁrst of
seven events in an 11-day
stretch across the top
three series.
There will be no prac-

tice, no qualifying and
drivers will jump into
their cars for the ﬁrst
time since March 8 and
attempt to tackle “The
Track Too Tough To
Tame.”
“Events are going to
look different than they
have in the past,” said
John Bobo, NASCAR
vice president of racing
operations. NASCAR has
set guidelines to safely
hold the events using
CDC guidelines on social
distancing and personal
protective equipment.
The entire venue will be
used to maintain distancing in garage stalls and
where the haulers are
parked, while drivers
will have to self-isolate in
their motorhomes as they
prepare to compete.
“Our priority right now
is to try and get back racing in a safe way,” said
Steve O’Donnell, chief
racing development ofﬁ-

cer. NASCAR follows the
UFC as the ﬁrst major
sports organizations to
get back to work since
the coronavirus pandemic
shut down U.S. sports in
mid-March. The Professional Bull Racing Series
resumed competition last
weekend and there has
been some horse racing.
NASCAR’s revised
schedule goes only
through May and has a
pair of Wednesday Cup
races, fulﬁlling fans’ longtime plea for midweek
events. The ﬁrst of those
races will be at Darlington, three days after
the return race at the
70-year-old, egg-shaped
oval.
Charlotte Motor Speedway will then host the
Coca-Cola 600 on May 24
to mark 60 consecutive
years the longest race on
the NASCAR schedule
will be held on Memorial Day weekend. The

track in Concord, outside
NASCAR’s home base of
Charlotte, will then host
a Wednesday race three
days later.
There also will be lower-tier Xﬁnity and Truck
series races at the two
tracks. The North Carolina governor has said the
the Charlotte races can
be held as long as health
conditions in the area do
not deteriorate.
“This has been a proactive effort to put our
motorsports industry
back to work and boost
the morale of sports fans
around the world,” said
Marcus Smith, president
and CEO of Speedway
Motorsports. He said
“sports fans around the
world need this, a return
to some sense of normalcy with live sports
on TV, and NASCAR is
uniquely positioned to
deliver it from a competition standpoint.”
