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

The cumulative reported number is 227 cases across the county and of those, 210 have recovered and four have died.

According to Oswego County Public Information Officer Kelly Jordal, a positive case that was previously reported was a duplicate, so per state guidance, the county removed it from the total. This is in explanation for why the number is 227 rather than 228.

Today’s statistics are below:

Oswego County:[1] (as of 3 p.m.) Note, the total number of positive cases is cumulative and the number of recoveries and deaths are of those numbers.

  • Total # of active cases: 13 (yesterday: 15)
  • Total # of positive cases: 227 (yesterday: 226)
  • Total recoveries: 210 (yesterday: 207)
  • Total # of deaths: 4 (no change from yesterday)
  • Total # people tested: 19,955 (yesterday: 19,731)
  • Total # of negative results: 19,543 (yesterday: 19,321)
  • Total # of people in mandatory isolation/quarantine: 59 (yesterday: 57)
  • Total # of positive antibody tests: 54 (as of June 9)
  • Total # of negative antibody tests: 2,444 (as of June 9)

The county has stopped releasing data for pending results, number of people in precautionary quarantine and total number completed/released from monitoring. Data will not be released on Sundays. Antibody test results are released once a week.

All known contacts of COVID-19 positive patients are being notified. In the event that a known case had public exposure when they were contagious, such as someone who worked in a restaurant, the county health department would alert citizens through the news media and social media.

Areas With Cases (alphabetical order):

COVID-19 has been identified in the cities of Fulton and Oswego and the towns of Amboy, Boylston, Constantia, Granby, Hannibal, Hastings, Mexico, Minetto, New Haven, Orwell, Oswego, Palermo, Parish, Redfield, Richland, Sandy Creek, Schroeppel, Scriba, Volney, West Monroe and Williamstown.

The county does not release the town/city of individual cases. If there has been a new case and a new area has not been added, that means it is in an area that has already been affected before. Once an area is added it is not removed from the list because the county does not say when a town/city no longer has a case.
