To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Ohio Open Records Law, I hereby request the following records:
Any and all digital records (including but not limited to emails, text messages, PDF files, social media posts, etc.) concerning a real or potential shortage of COVID-19 testing supplies in Ohio and/or an estimated timeline on when said COVID-19 testing supplies are expected to be in sufficient supply to meet the general public's demand for COVID-19 testing to the degree necessary to alleviate the COVID-19 pandemic in Ohio.
By "COVID-19 testing supplies", I mean any medical supplies necessary for doctors to administer tests to patients either to diagnose the patients with COVID-19, or to determine whether they have already recovered from COVID-19.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 business days.
Sincerely,
Christopher Tidmarsh
From: Christopher Tidmarsh
To whom it may concern:
I would like to amend the part of my Ohio Open Records Law request that reads: "...either to diagnose the patients with COVID-19 or to determine whether they have already recovered from COVID-19."
I would like to change it to: "...either to diagnose the patients with COVID-19 or to determine whether they possess immunity to COVID-19 (such as through antibody tests or any other methods that might be used to test for immunity)."
Sincerely,
Christopher Tidmarsh

Hello,
If I understand correctly, in order to request records under the Ohio Public Records Act, I have to request records that are already public and that I already know basic information about, is that right? I'm not allowed to request a search for records in order to seek their declassification, the way one can with the federal Freedom of Information Act, is that correct?
Sincerely,
Christopher Tidmarsh
