I don't understand this article. There are no citations, but I can't find anything that shows OK having the second most deaths, and plenty of states topped 20,000 deaths long ago.

Yeah, I don't get this at all. The most recent number I can find is: 1,144,877 US COVID deaths. Divided equally amongst 50 states, that's around 22k per state. There's no way Oklahoma has the second most. Maybe per Capita?
