One person may have spread measles at a half-dozen sites in Ohio

One person infected with measles may have spread the highly contagious disease over a period of about a week at more than a half-dozen sites in Northeast Ohio. Geauga Public Health is reporting a confirmed case of measles with exposures at several public locations in Geauga and Lake counties during the time period the individual was able to spread the virus. Statewide, the Ohio Department of Health is reporting 310 cases in 25 counties so far this year, according to its most recent summary of infectious diseases dashboard update on Nov. 5. That number is nearly six times (588.9%) more than the 45 cases reported in all of 2025. The vast majority of cases in Ohio are among unvaccinated individuals, per ODH. “It’s unfortunate that these outbreaks have become more common in Ohio over the past few years, because this disease is preventable,” Dr. Bruce Vanderhoff, ODH director, said a July 30 statement. “This serves to emphasize the importance of being fully vaccinated. I strongly encourage you to protect yourselves and your children by getting vaccinated.” Here's where measles may have spread in Geauga and Lake counties. US measles cases: A once almost-forgotten disease is spiking in the US. See

Ohio’s ‘wandering bears’ signal a possible comeback for the species

Bear Sightings Ohio Andrew Krech/The Citizens' Voice via AP On a warm night in mid July, Brandan Smith heard a sound outside his house in rural Coshocton. Curious, he opened his door and walked outside. As his eyes adjusted to the dark, he saw a large, hulking figure in his driveway, rummaging in the bins and boxes he’d readied for trash pickup the next day. “I immediately turned around, went back inside the house and slammed the door,” Smith recalled. “That image of something huge spooked me. And it just kind of dawned on me: It’s a bear.” Certain that no one would believe him unless he had proof, Smith grabbed his phone, gathered his courage and went back outside to capture a video. “Sure enough, the bear was still there, eating garbage,” Smith said. “I’d just gotten done cleaning out the deep freezer, and it was into the old freezer-burned ice cream.” According to Smith, the bear seemed completely unbothered by his presence, even though he was only about 25 feet away. Unsure what to do, Smith called the police. Then he watched the bear ransack his trash pile until a police cruiser arrived half an hour later and
