  • 1,681 is today's 7-day rolling average for the number of new cases reported.

  • For more information, visit https://oklahoma.gov/covid19.html.
  • As seen elsewhere in the country, Oklahoma’s COVID-19 case numbers are on the rise. Many factors contribute to the increased spread, including more indoor gatherings, holiday travel, increased testing, and of course the addition of a new variant. With the New Year’s holiday this weekend, we encourage those who will be gathering in groups to consider precautions and safety measures to help prevent illness. Recommended safety measures include, wearing a mask, washing your hands often and watching your distance. Moving forward, one of the best ways to keep yourself and those around you protected is vaccination.
  • In today's Situation Update, we are including a link to two hospital capacity reports, one outlining the number and percent of Unoccupied Adult ICU beds by region, and the other the number and percent of Unoccupied Adult Inpatient Beds by region. We want to emphasize this is a point in time count reported by hospitals to HHS. Hospital capacity numbers change on an hourly basis depending upon admissions and discharges. This data is self-reported by hospitals. Data are subject to change as facilities enter and/or update their responses. This document will be updated on our website daily Monday-Friday to align with the release of the Situation Update.
