What's stuck in my mind for Ohio is around 14,000 cases by mid-August unless "dad" telling us that he will turn the car around if we don't strart wearing our masks works.

My impression is that it will have close to zero impact, "dad" will have to turn the car around - but it will be a week from now - and that will be too late to prevent Ohio from turning into Florida.
