OSWEGO COUNTY – According to the Oswego County Health Department, as of 3 p.m., there have been 81 additional cases of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) since Saturday.

Today there are 570 active cases across the county.

SUNY Oswego reported four cases since Friday.

“We see positive cases continue to increase,” said Oswego County Public Health Director Jiancheng Huang. “It is obvious that people are infected from social gatherings and then spread the virus to their own families, households and groups; making the whole family or group COVID-19 positive. For the safety of yourself and your loved ones, and for the community, you must wear a face mask over your nose and mouth in public, wash your hands frequently and practice social distancing. Social gatherings of any size – even between family members who don’t live together – are not recommended. We all need to practice these measures. They are imperative if we want to preserve our local first response teams and health care system.”

Today’s statistics are below:

Oswego County: (as of 3 p.m.) Note, the total number of positive cases is cumulative since March and the number of recoveries and deaths are of those numbers. SUNY Oswego cases are included in the county numbers, however, the county tracks only those living in Oswego County. That means that students who chose to leave and go back to their home county and test positive there will be included on the college’s dashboard, but not the county’s. Their positive result would be reported to their home county, not here.
