The virus primarily transmits from person to person through respiratory droplets and tiny particles released during coughing, sneezing, or talking by an infected person.In crowded or inadequately ventilated interior environments, the virus can easily spread. Mild to severe illness is possible, though not everyone who contracts the virus exhibits symptoms. Serious sickness is more likely to affect those 65 and older and people of any age who have underlying medical issues.
The CDC advises getting the COVID-19 vaccine for anybody older than six months, and if they are eligible, getting boosters for everyone older than five.
All Oklahomans are eligible to receive a COVID-19 vaccine.
