Offered through the university health system, so they don't show up there?

It won't be offering vaccines to the general public until Thursday. When I went to the county expo center east of Stillwater, there were around 35 people in the 15 minute waiting room. Vaccines are often out of stock in the Wal-Marts and drug stores. Maybe appointments are going a lot faster in Stillwater than in many of the smaller towns, well dah.

We have now fallen to 28th in the country for one dose of the shot so far. I think now is the time to get these targeted to areas with lower rates instead of big vaccine events. Mobile units and at local doctor's offices would be a good start. We now are in the phase of getting people who won't go out of their way to get a shot but will if it is convenient.

There is probably too many people believing the outrageous misinfo that has been going out about the vaccines. At the risk of offending them, maybe that's why so many towns in the rural counties have a good supply of vaccines in stock.

Hopefully in a few weeks we can look back at this prediction as not so accurate. Any statement like this that also raises the party line flag gets a question mark from me.

Right. Even Fauci said this morning that there is not a high likelihood of another major surge. There will be a lot of anti-vaxxers who will die by their own decisions, however.

It's not even mainly about dying. It's also about the bad after-effects 1 in 3 have: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/third-covid-survivors-suffer-neurological-223000621.html

Who knows altogether the percentage of bad after effects? This firefighter had it so bad he had to have a double lung transplant: https://www.stwnewspress.com/news/stillwater-firefighter-randy-blake-discharged-after-lengthy-battle-with-covid-19/article_e4e5a64c-1e39-59bd-bf06-3b600e9ad543.html

Oklahoma is going to be opening vaccination up to non-residents on Thursday.

Guys I need some help.

What is the website to where I can look for and book my 2nd covid vaccine shot?

I know this has been asked before, but I can't find it. I recently got home from 11 days in the hospital as a Covid patient. I'm doing ok but I just can't seem to find whatever website it is that I need. It is now getting close to 30 days since I originally got the 1st covid vaccine shot.

Sorry if this has been asked before, I just really need some help here. I have googled but just no luck.

Thank you, everyone, much appreciated.

So you received your 1st Covid shot and then got Covid and spent 11 days in the hospital? Glad you're ok!

Mayor Holt was pushing the State Fair Park location for your vax shots hard on Twitter yesterday. Got his second shot there, and suggested that they have shots to spare and that anyone who needs one should think of that location.

Plus on air on most if not all the local TV stations. Even with that channel 9 this morning said a little less than 6000 of the 10,000 available shots were administered.

Are there any other states that have opened up vaccinations for non-residents?

I'm now more than a couple of weeks out from my second shot. I still think it's important to wear the mask in public because you want to model good behavior for the folks who haven't had the shot. I'm now allowing myself to eat in restaurants again. Got mine throught he OSDH. First time around, I was in line for nearly an hour. We received an appointment for the second shot on the way out the door. There was ZERO line at the second shot, which would suggest that a number of people got the first shot and blew off the second, so that's a bit disturbing, and if that's the case, I guess we're going to find out long term how effective that first shot really is.

I don't think my arm was sore after the shot, or at least, no more sore than normal. No other complications really. If you haven't done this, do it. There are still a ton of infections out there, and I doubt the numbers on the website come close to the actual number of cases in the wild. Even if you can handle, it, spending a few minutes in line for a quick shot has got to beat several days at home and having to quarantine after while possibly infecting your family and coworkers.

Tomorrow is the two weeks out from our second shot, and this weekend is my wife's birthday. We've got reservations at the Jones Assembly for Saturday, and then we're going out for a show. I'm so excited about finally going out. We'll still be wearing masks and socially distancing, but just getting out is going to be incredible. I can't imagine why anyone would want to stretch this out by avoiding getting a shot, especially since supplies are so good right now.

I've been going to restaurants with no regrets since late last summer once or twice a week but only during less busy times. I've been surprised by how busy the popular ones have been during the busy times. I have definitely been staying out of all bars since last summer. Hardly anybody wears a mask, except bartenders.

In and out from my first Pfizer in about 20 minutes with no line from OSDH set up at Expo Center, Payne County Fairgrounds. Only had a sore arm at shot site for about 3 days. 2nd one coming up later this month. People should get vaccinated. It may be mild if you catch it, but it could be severe as this young guy found out. You never know. https://www.ocolly.com/news/my-experience-with-covid-19/article_90771cf6-dce9-11ea-8258-fbfc393744ed.html

I'm just short of 24 hours removed from my 2nd Pfizer. I felt completely fine yesterday other than typical arm soreness. Woke up with a slight fever this morning and feel just a little sluggish but overall fine. I was planning on my normal morning run but felt just enough off that I didn't feel like doing it.

Oklahoma now tumbling down the rankings on vaccination. I have three colleagues who are resistors, two of which for purely political reasons. I wonder if we can get above 65% in Oklahoma.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/us/covid-19-vaccine-doses.html

I read today that herd immunity is now distinctly unlikely given the large minority of people -- particularly southerners and Republicans -- unwilling to get the shot. So, Covid 19 and masks are here to stay. Thank an anti-vaxxer!

I saw the same thing and it’s a darn shame. People cite concerns over short and long-term safety; yet, they’re ignoring whats right in front of them. Long term covid effects are becoming better understood and it’s not good. High rates of people infected have neurological issues. Lung issues plague many even if they had few to no symptoms. It’s obvious that the long term effects of covid far outweigh the risks of the shot. It really is disappointing how bad people are at risk assessment in society.

I know several people not getting the vaccine, and they really need it because if they catch covid, there’s a good chance it will be really bad for them. Sad...

It’s not like Polio or Rubella. They knew, early on, that it would behave like the flu (i.e., continue to circulate and require yearly inoculations), regardless of any vaccine’s effectiveness.

That’s an interesting rationalization.

Which is another good point for getting the vaccine. Less cases = less variants = less needed modifications to the vaccines.

928 million doses have been given world wide. About 1000 have died within 120 days of receiving the vaccine, with no established relationship between the vaccine and those deaths. These numbers include people who, for example, got in a car accident.

https://www.newsweek.com/covid-vaccine-deaths-cause-pfizer-moderna-fact-check-966-died-1574447

So called breakthrough cases amount to about 0.008% of those vaccinated.

https://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/national/coronavirus/cdc-breakthrough-rate-of-covid-19-cases-in-fully-vaccinated-people-is-0-00008

141 million cases of COVID-19 have been reported world wide, with over 3 million deaths.

Whether we realize it or not, we all make risk assessments in our daily lives. And, in any context, this is an easy one to figure out. But this one is also compounded by that fact that it's not just a risk assessment for one's self, but for all the people they interact with, and all the people those people interact with.

Some people like to speed or drive recklessly. Maybe because they think it's a freedom to do so. They probably think "I care less about my safety than feeling free". But, they're also risking everyone else's safety in this quest for a sense of freedom. I'm sure everyone who drives has a term or terms they like to use to describe these people when they come across them, and I sincerely doubt anyone is yelling "patriot!!!" or "freedom!!!" when they get in a wreck or even almost get in a wreck because of these drivers exercising their choice to drive recklessly.

In much the same way, those choice terms apply to those who can get the vaccine, but simply choose not to.

I got off the fence and got the vaccine due to the above reasons and because I haven't heard of anything bad happening to the first human test subjects that started a year ago. They're the canaries in the coal mine, apparently doing fine. People falling for the outrageous stories told about the vaccines is a highly unfortunate situation.

And 28% of independents. The good news is, those numbers are all smaller than they were a month ago, and even smaller than they were a few months ago. It gives me more confidence that we can hit the 80-90% vaccinated eventually.

I'll bet you $100 that the USA will never get to 80% vaccinated, which is a sad bet... And just to be clear, I'd be really happy if we did hit 80%.

The key is to reach herd immunity before next fall and winter.

It doesn't seem very likely to happen.

I'll bet you $100 that the USA will never get to 80% vaccinated, which is a sad bet...

Maybe, but if just 26% are currently saying they won't, that implies that 74% that are open or willing to it (or have already gotten it). And that number of folks who say they won't get it has been dropping in the polls I have seen. I believe at one point it was in the 40s. I've also seen multiple polls which seem to break down a lot of the resistance by age, and that definitely comes into it, with those on the right over 45 having a much higher rate of vaccination that those younger. I expect a lot of the younger ones may end up getting it eventually, even if they're resisting now, as more colleges and such offer vaccine clinics.

We are never going to get there in Oklahoma, you can pretty much take that to the bank.

Based on local politics and how they directly influence the likelihood of vaccination, you can almost be guaranteed Oklahoma is going to finish at or very near the bottom.

Maybe the state health dept. or the stores like Wal-Mart will give out at least $20 gift cards to provide incentive.

It might help if the canaries in the coal mine, the first human test subjects for the vaccines would promote getting the vaccine by reporting they are dong fine after a year.

We should do another round of stimulus checks tied to vaccinations. We probably should do that once there's an approved vaccine for children.

The problem with that is it can directly fuel the anti-vax fire. "See, I told you it was so bad for you they have to bribe people to get them"

There is no winning this sheer stupidity and misinformation firestorm. I say that as one of the only members of my family who will get it. And of course, the vaccination rate in my family lies 100% on the political party of the family members. How do you overcome this?

From the Tulsa World:

Oklahoma ranks No. 35 for the percentage of people fully vaccinated at 28.8%. Maine is first at 37.4%, while Alabama is worst at 22.0%.

The state is No. 38 with 38.1% of its population having received at least one dose. New Hampshire is tops at 59.7%, and Mississippi last at 30.6%.

You are correct, and I predict it will go like this...

A disease so deadly that you have to get tested to know you have it, and a vaccine so great that they have to pay you to receive it.

And the race to the bottom begins.

Get outside the big cities and people are generally more skeptical of the vaccine. Same with some suburbs. Basically anywhere that voted heavily for Trump will have a much lower vaccine %.

Which would be kind of weird. The vaccines were effectively Trump's only solution to pandemic. He focused entirely on the end game, and then they won't participate when it happens.

I know tons of trump supporters in Oklahoma who alll have been vaccinated. And many were at front of lines.
I think the trump supporter narrative is more of just rural area where it hasn’t been as much of concern or much change to their life as it has in cities are less likely to want or feel need for it. Those areas just happen to be trump heavy areas.

I wonder if it might also fall on religious lines? Hard to tell without some sort of large study.

It's 100% political.

44% of Republicans said they would refuse the vax; only 8% Democrats.

I wonder if it might also fall on religious lines? Hard to tell without some sort of large study.

If only 30% of the country has been fully vaccinated, clearly it’s not on religious nor political lines. The black and hispanic community vaccination rates lag behind any other demographic

Oklahoma has declined some of its vaccine allotment due to waning demand:

It's 100% political.

44% of Republicans said they would refuse the vax; only 8% Democrats.

There more to it than just if they are republican or democrat. Many reasons are not political based just happen to be the voting affiliation that associate with. But many are not getting it for various reasons. It’s not just based on politics.
That is just alienating people for some valid reasons they haven’t gotten it. You have to look at specifics to regions and rural areas have less desire for it since their lives have had little change with less restrictions so they don’t feel they need to get vaccine like someone in bigger city might to resume normal life.
Just trying to look at life and things without throwing political labels on everything. There much more to understand and not label everything as republican or democrat based and see down to real reasons

I also think I’d rather be in Oklahoma’s case we here we had a quick rollout and then start lagging other states because in turn we were able to keep out the next wave where as other states had issues with increasing cases and by cases dropping you start having less desire for vaccine over time since the cases are down 95%. While yes if we could get more vaccinated it would be great, but things continue to move on the right direction with our cases

It's 100% political.

44% of Republicans said they would refuse the vax; only 8% Democrats.

I wonder if this tells the whole story ...

in Oklahoma for instance rural areas are almost entirely Republican ..... i would be very interested in Urban/rural numbers in this state ....

because very very few people that i know or work with (lots of republicans ) are anti the covid vaccine

I know of several rural counties that had very high percentages higher than okc early on getting shots. They are like 99% Trump voting areas. There is more factors to it than republican and democrats. More to story than just political affiliations

I know plenty of people in OKC who will never, ever take the vaccination.
