OSWEGO COUNTY – According to the Oswego County Health Department, as of 3 p.m., there have been 36 additional cases of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) since yesterday.
The cumulative reported number is 980 cases across the county and of those, 813 have recovered and five have died.
SUNY Oswego reported two new cases since yesterday.
The Oswego County Health Department is investigating a confirmed case of COVID-19 in an employee of the Wild Horse Bar & Grill, 720 Co. Rte. 37, Central Square. Customers who visited the restaurant on the following dates and times may have been exposed to COVID-19:

Oswego County Legislature Chairman James Weatherup posted his weekly briefing today on the Oswego County Government’s YouTube channel. In this week’s video, he discussed the spike in positive cases within the county.
“This week we have seen a dramatic increase in COVID virus activity,” Weatherup said. “The health department’s disease investigations show that what started out as a small community cluster started to spread very quickly through social gatherings about a week or 10 days ago… Every one of us and every business and organization should be complying with the state and local directives to control the spread of COVID-19 in our county.”
He said at the rate that the virus is spreading in Oswego County, there may soon be more restrictions on public gatherings and other activities.
Weatherup also discussed how yesterday areas in Onondaga County were declared to be in a Yellow Zone. In this precautionary zone, social gatherings are limited to 25 people, schools must increase COVID-19 testing, bars and restaurants close at midnight, and restaurants can only serve four people at each table. These restrictions are part of the state’s micro cluster strategy and are based off an area’s rate of infection.
Oswego County would be placed in a Yellow Zone if it has a 7-day rolling average of over 3.5% positive cases for 10 days and 15 new cases per 100,000 residents on a 7-day average.
Currently, the county’s rolling average for positive cases is 2.1%.
“We haven’t reached the Yellow Zone threshold yet, but it’s very possible we will soon,” Weatherup said. “Let’s do everything we can to prevent this from happening. No one in Oswego County wants to see business restrictions, lay-offs, and an economic slow-down again.”
Diane Oldenburg joined the video and emphasized that anyone who participated in Halloween activities and is now experiencing COVID-19 symptoms needs to get tested. She also said it is important to limit the size of gatherings for the holidays this year; the safest way of celebrating Thanksgiving this month is to do so with those in your household.
“If you do plan to attend a gathering, bring your own food, drink, plates, cups and utensils,” Oldenburg said. “Wear a mask, and safely store your mask when eating or drinking. And avoid going in and out of areas where food is being prepared or handled. These steps will help prevent a surge like we’re seeing from Halloween activities.”
Weatherup also took the time to thank Oswego County’s 12,000 veterans in honor of Veterans Day tomorrow. He requested that each person thanks a veteran tomorrow for their service to the country. Veterans Director Jamie Hamlin joined to share that sentiment and to discuss how they contribute to communities out of uniform. For more information on Veterans Day events, see here[2].
Today’s statistics are below:
Oswego County:[3] (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.
