Oklahoma Health Officials See Uptick In COVID-19 Vaccinations Amid Rise In New Cases
As COVID-19 cases rise in many parts of the country and in Oklahoma, the state is starting to see a new vaccine surge.
"We are definitely seeing greater interest in people getting vaccinated," said Keith Reed, Deputy Commissioner of Health for the Oklahoma Department of Health.
Reed said since the first week of July, they've seen a 160% increase in Oklahomans getting a first dose, and an 81% increase in overall vaccines given out.
"I have no doubt that the increase in case numbers, the increase in the hospitalizations that we're seeing not just in Oklahoma but nationwide, is really fueling that renewed interest in people getting vaccinated," said Reed.
