- Case numbers from over the weekend reflect a steady increase in community transmission, something OSDH has anticipated occurring with trends seen in the state over the past week and elsewhere in the country. OSDH ramped up testing operations over the weekend, extending hours at county health departments and also offering testing through mobile units in some areas of the state. We plan to continue this statewide testing effort, making sure those who need a test have access to one. We encourage those who have symptoms or believe they have been exposed to COVID-19 to get tested and complete the recommended isolation and/or quarantine period based on test results. Moving forward, one of the best ways to keep yourself and those around you protected is vaccination.
- As of this advisory, there are 764,651 cases of COVID-19 in Oklahoma.
- 6,829 is today's 7-day rolling average for the number of new cases reported.
- Provisional Death Count (CDC/NCHS): 12,650

- 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.
