Mother & son die in early morning house fire
SUMMARY: A tragic house fire occurred early Friday morning in Northwest Oklahoma City, claiming the lives of a mother and her young son. The fire broke out around 4 AM, with neighbors reporting screams and flames. Two teenage girls jumped from a second-story window and escaped unharmed, while a father and another son were hospitalized with serious burns. Firefighters faced challenges due to intense conditions, including a flashover, where everything ignited simultaneously. Many neighbors were initially unaware of the incident until the scene was cleared. Authorities noted that the family had recently failed to replace smoke alarm batteries.

Health experts address Tuberculosis concerns amid Kansas outbreak
SUMMARY: Kansas is currently facing the largest tuberculosis (TB) outbreak in the U.S. since the 1950s, with 67 active cases reported since January. Oklahoma health officials reassure residents that there is no direct impact, as the state has recorded only 13 cases this year, consistent with typical levels. TB, a serious bacterial infection primarily affecting the lungs, presents symptoms such as a persistent cough and weight loss. Health experts emphasize the importance of monitoring the situation, early detection, and screening for those at risk, including individuals with weakened immune systems or recent travel to high-prevalence areas.
