OSWEGO COUNTY – According to the Oswego County Health Department, as of 3 p.m., there have been 130 additional cases of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and three more county residents have died since Saturday, January 2.

  • New cases yesterday (Sunday): 70 and one death
  • New cases today: 60 and two deaths

There are 1,043 known active cases across the county as of today.

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

Huang also expressed his condolences to the loved ones of the patient whose death was reported yesterday.

He said that there is a renewed sense of hope with the arrival of new vaccines.

“However, it takes time to get most of the population vaccinated,” Huang emphasized. “We must keep vigilant in our protection practices and follow all COVID-19 protocols. These are still the best ways to protect yourselves and the whole community.”

The Oswego County Health Department is also investigating a confirmed case of COVID-19 at LaGraf’s Pub, 187 E. 10th St., Oswego. Anyone who visited the bar between 6 and 10 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 27 may have been exposed to the virus and should monitor themselves for symptoms for 14 days.

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.
