Oklahoma will offer COVID-19 vaccines to residents of other states Dana Branham, Oklahoman © Gerald Herbert/AP It s now far easier to get vaccinated for the coronavirus than it was weeks ago in Oklahoma. Oklahoma will drop its state residency requirement for COVID-19 vaccinations, the state health department announced Wednesday. Beginning Thursday, the state will offer vaccines to people who reside in neighboring states and beyond. The Oklahoma State Department of Health said increasing supply and progress in the state s vaccination efforts allowed for the change. Oklahoma is among the first states in the U.S. to offer its vaccines to non-residents, according to the health department. Several Native American tribes also have been offering vaccinations to anyone old enough for one regardless of affiliation or residence.
