UNEMPLOYMENT FRAUD INCREASING
  • Reports of FRAUDULENT unemployment claims are increasing in Oklahoma and nationwide, as bad actors attempt to file false claims on behalf of others.
  • If you believe you are a victim of unemployment fraud, please report it at oag.ok.gov/coronavirus-fraud-resources
 
ECONOMIC IMPACT PAYMENTS CONTINUE
  • More than 1.5 million Oklahomans have received COVID-19 economic impact PAYMENTS from the federal government totaling nearly $2.8 billion. The payments are generally $1,200 per individual.
  • Individuals who have NOT received a payment yet may check their eligibility and provide necessary information at irs.gov/coronavirus/economic-impact-payments
 
WEEKLY EPIDEMIOLOGIST REPORT
  • The number of positive CASES as a percentage of total performed tests continues to decline, keeping the state in compliance with federal guidelines for reopening, according to the Health Department’s latest weekly epidemiology and tracking report.
  • Oklahoma’s COVID-19 rate of prevalence ranks 45th nationally while its death rate ranks 30th, according to the report.
  • Over the past week, new CASES rose 18.5% while DEATHS declined 11.6%. Officials attributed the new case increase to improved and expanded testing and tracing.
