OSWEGO COUNTY – According to the Oswego County Health Department, as of 3 p.m., there have been 84 additional cases of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and four more county residents have died since yesterday.

“I would like to express our condolences to the families and friends of these patients,” said Oswego County Public Health Director Jiancheng Huang. “This is a sad reminder that the virus is rampant in our county. We must all do our part to protect our families and communities and reduce the number of positive cases. This is paramount to preventing future deaths.”

While the COVID-19 vaccine is becoming available through the New York State Vaccination Program, it is still closely rationed.

“Right now, supplies of the COVID-19 vaccine are our biggest challenge,” Huang said. “The allotments we have received from the state have been very limited and we quickly administered all of those doses. We have had mass vaccination plans in place for just this type of situation and we practice them every year. We’re ready. We just need a bigger allotment of the vaccine – and on a regular schedule – so that we can plan and publicize clinics and get people vaccinated following the State’s priority schedule.” 

Oswego County Legislature Chairman James Weatherup agreed.

“Our County Health department and our health care partners are doing their very best to deploy the vaccine within the guidance and the allotments that New York State has given us,” Weatherup said. “While we have the capability to vaccinate several thousand residents a week, we have only received a few hundred doses in that timeframe. So, we’re asking our residents to please be patient. The amount of vaccine we receive, the vaccination priority schedules, and the links on the State’s website are not controlled here locally.”  

The Oswego County Health Department is also investigating a confirmed case of COVID-19 at Byrne Dairy and Deli, 1013 Emery St., Fulton. Anyone who visited the store between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. on Monday, Jan. 4 and between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 5 may have been exposed to the virus and should monitor themselves for symptoms for 14 days.

Notes: The total number of positive cases in Oswego County 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.

SUNY Oswego reset its numbers for the Winter/Spring 2021 semesters and does not include numbers from Aug. 12, 2020 to Jan. 1, 2021.
