Executive Order 2020-6
On March 6, 2020, the first case of a novel coronavirus ("COVID-19"), was confirmed in the State of Oklahoma. Since that time, two additional cases of COVID-19 have been confirmed in the State. The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has identified the potential public health threat posed by COVID-19 as "high" both globally and in the United States. While impact in Oklahoma has been minimal to date, it is important for Oklahoma to be ready for this threat.
Therefore, I, J. Kevin Stitt, Governor of the State of Oklahoma, pursuant to the power vested in me by Section 2 of Article VI of the Oklahoma Constitution, hereby declare and direct the following:
Copies of this Executive Order shall be distributed to all agency directors who shall cause the provisions of this Order to be implemented.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Oklahoma to be affixed at Oklahoma City, this 12th day of March, 2020.
BY THE GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF OKLAHOMA
