According to daily figures released by the Oklahoma Department of Health, three new virus-related deaths and 673 new cases of coronavirus have been reported in the state since Tuesday.

A total of 17,893 Oklahoma tested positive for COVID-19, bringing the total death toll to 407, the state’s Department of Health said Wednesday.

Three deaths were reported, but no one died in the last 24 hours.

A man aged 50 to 64 died in Kay County. A woman over the age of 65 died in Oklahoma County. A man over the age of 65 died in Tulsa County.

Currently, a total of 1,804 Oklahoma are hospitalized for the virus and 458 patients are hospitalized.

So far, 13,538 Oklahoma have recovered from the virus and it is believed that more than 533 patients have recovered since Tuesday. Health officials said that recovery means that the patient has not been hospitalized or died, and that 14 days have passed since the onset of symptoms or reports.

As of Wednesday morning, a total of 376,930 tests were negative. This includes post-February state tests and private lab tests.

On Tuesday, June 30, Governor Kevin Stitt was “strongly recommended” to wear a face mask and follow the CDC guidelines for face masks.

Dr. Dale Bratzler, Chief of COVID at the University of Oklahoma, said the recent increase in cases was not due to testing. Over the last few weeks, the number of tests run has increased slightly, but still significantly higher than the April volume.

“I don’t think this is related to testing at all, I think the spread of this virus to the community is expanding,” said Bratzler. “This is a rapid growth right now.”
