OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma health officials reported more than 2,800 newly confirmed COVID-19 cases Saturday, and 13 more deaths linked to the disease caused by the novel coronavirus.

The Oklahoma State Department of Health on Saturday reported 2,854 new cases of COVID-19. The state also reported 3,403 cases from Friday.

The counts come as the pandemic has grown worse across the state. Infectious diseases experts have warned that Thanksgiving could cause spikes in testing and delays in processing that will make the resulting figures difficult to interpret.
