Resolution; declaring May as Alpha-gal Awareness and Prevention Month.

This resolution declares May as Alpha-gal Awareness and Prevention Month in Oklahoma to highlight a tick-bite allergy (alpha-gal syndrome) causing severe, life-threatening reactions and requiring strict avoidance of certain meats and dairy. It urges health providers, educators, and community groups to increase public awareness about this condition and tick-borne illnesses. The resolution directs the Oklahoma State Department of Health to use this month for education and prevention efforts. It is a symbolic measure focused on raising awareness, not creating new laws or funding.
