Based on our research, the claim that the Oklahoma Department of Health planned a spike in cases of COVID-19 is false.
An email from an employee of the Oklahoma State Department of Health spread on social media along with allegations that the state orchestrated a sharp increase in cases of COVID-19.— claims that the email"announced a planned spike in Covid numbers for next week for Oklahoma."
Rather, the email — sent by Maria Alexander, a regional director — warned county commissioners about how a new reporting system might elevate the number of cases that a state website indicated in their counties. Previously, the Oklahoma State Department of Health defined"confirmed COVID-19 positive case" as an individual diagnosed with a positive PCR test.
