August 8th, The Oklahoman published an opinion piece by Adam Cohen, (Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Interim President of the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation), written as a conversation with the Coronavirus.
Though a rhetorical device, it's clear this editorial was used as a way to blunt the scalpel the writer plunges into the heart of a large portion of Oklahoma's population by way of his thesis – that unvaccinated individuals are not only responsible for continued spread of the disease, but for propagation of disease variants as well.
