Oklahoma ranks worst in recent flu cases

There have been no deaths in the last recorded week

TULSA — The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says Oklahoma is in the high-risk category, which is actually the worst in the nation right now.

Experts say the vaccine this year didn’t quite hit the mark, so they’re shifting the focus to prevention and treatment.

Washing your hands is one of the most effective ways to stop the spread.

Fourteen people have died due to flu-related symptoms in Oklahoma since Sept., 2021.
