Quote of the Day | June 2, 2020

“It boggles the mind to understand why (the health department) would take a highly informative report and render it useless to local citizens throughout Oklahoma. Knowing COVID-19 by ZIP code and city allows citizens to be fully informed during this time of high anxiety. If we want to avoid a resurgence of this disease this summer and fall we should not retreat on transparency of COVID-19 case disclosures at the local level.”

-Oklahoma Press Association Executive Vice President Mark Thomas [Journal Record]
