Ohio, a key state in the election, is one of the states seeing a climb in cases.
Here's what the governor had to say.
"We got to start doing this more. And there is good news. We now know how important masks are. We know we can knock this thing down," said Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine. "And if we do that and come together, this winter will not be as bad as many people are predicting it. I am optimistic that Ohioans are starting to see that this thing is really, really spreading in Ohio."
