DILLON: WELL, WE ARE IN A VERY DANGEROUS SPOT FOR HOSPITALIZATIONS ACROSS THE STATE. THEY’RE AT ONE OF THE HIGHEST LEVELS EVER STATEWIDE, HEAD OF ANOTHER EXPECTED SURGE FROM THE HOLIDAYS. THE STACKED TO WATCH RIGHT NOW IS THE MEMBER OF HOSPITALIZATIONS STATEWIDE. LAST NIGHT, A RECORD PEOPLE IN 501 THE ICU, MORE THAN 1900 COVID PATIENTS TOTAL. HEALTH OFFICIALS SAY IF THAT NUMBER DOESN’T START TO FALL, IT COULD PLUNGE HOSPITALS INTO FURTHER CRISIS. YOU CAN SEE ON THE CHART OF NEW CASES THAT WE JUST SAW A DROP SIMILAR TO THE ONE AFTER THANKSGIVING. WE MAY SEE ANOTHER ONE TOO AFTER NEW YEAR’S. IT COULD BE WEEKS BEFORE WE GET A GOOD SENSE OF OUR CASE NUMBERS BECAUSE OF THE HOLIDAY. TOMORROW’S CASE REPORT WILL COME DOWN ON SATURDAY. ON SUNDAY, THERE WILL BE A DOUBLE REPORT BEFORE GOING BACK TO NORMAL. TODAY, SOME VACCINATIONS FOR HEALTHCARE WORKERS AND FIRST RESPONDERS IN YUKON AND ENID. BUT HEALTH OFFICIALS CONTINUE TO STRESS, WE’RE NOT EVEN CLOSE TO DONE YET. >> THE VACCINATION PROGRAM IS A GREAT, OFFERING A POTENTIAL SOLUTION FOR US, BUT IT’S GONNA TAKE TIME BEFORE IT’S GOING TO HAVE THE IMPACT WE REALLY NEED IT TO TAKE. SO EVERYBODY’S STILL GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY
