We spend a little extra time discussing not just the current state of the COVID-19 pandemic but how we get to the end of the pandemic, specifically four proposals for how we get there.

SHOW NOTES

• State of play in Oklahoma
• Avg Tests per day: 1440 (265-2750)
• Positivity: 7.0%
• # Tests available: 86,603
• Testing supplies available: 41,327 
• Serology testing is underway

• How does OK stack up?
• To test at SK levels: 31,000 tests daily (2.7 days)
• At levels recommended by Paul Romer: 280,000 daily (about 3 hours)
• Serology: How accurate? What does it mean? 

Update on Stitt v #okleg

• On Tuesday, the House & Senate filed a lawsuit against the Governor...what???
• They argue that since Stitt didn’t sign nor veto SB199, that it is now law
• And thus, the Board of Equalization must meet in order to declare a revenue failure since the law is in place
• Board of Equalization set to meet April 20. Does that mean the Governor is giving in? 

Update on candidate filing 

• 46 of 148 seats unopposed. Much more than the last two cycles, but appears to be average overall. 

Now is a good time to reach out to lawmakers at home - social media, email, phone, etc.
