OSWEGO COUNTY – According to the Oswego County Health Department, as of 3 p.m., there have been 58 additional cases of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and two more county residents have died since yesterday.

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

Oswego County Legislature Chairman James Weatherup reminds residents to do their part to stop the spread of COVID-19.

“It will take time to get most of the population vaccinated,” Weatherup said. “Until then, I urge residents to be vigilant in their protection practices and follow all COVID-19 protocols. Wear a face mask over your nose and mouth in public, wash your hands frequently and practice social distancing. Comply with isolation and quarantine rules and – most importantly – avoid non-essential gatherings.”

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.
