I started tracking data for Oklahoma by using the State Health Department web site. That’s okay but it is just a fixed point in time every day. It would be like trying to figure out what is happening in drag race by measuring the speed a hundred yards out of the start. The sites below track the spread of the virus in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have your own credible sources of data let me know and I’ll consider adding it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
