Wednesday's News Update From KWGS

Wednesday's top stories:

• Fewer Oklahomans are getting COVID-19 than at earlier times in the pandemic, but the ones who do are now more likely to be hospitalized. Experts say the Delta variant of the virus may be more contagious and more severe.

• Oklahoma continues to have one of the lowest vaccination rates in the country, as state health officials continue to attempt to get health care providers to offer the shots out of their offices, in hopes vaccine-hesitant Oklahomans will trust their own doctors.
