While multiple media outlets praised DeWine and Acton's orders, a group of 75 protested the restrictions on nonessential workers outside the statehouse during their April 9 press conference.[79] Another protest was staged April 13, reporters commenting that the protesters could be heard and were "pounding on the windows" during the press conference.[80] Protests on April 18 included anti-semitic imagery, such as a sign showing a rat wearing a yarmulke and a Star of David with the caption, "The real plague."[81]
