OSWEGO COUNTY – According to the Oswego County Health Department, as of 3 p.m., there have been seven additional cases of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) since yesterday.
The cumulative reported number is 819 cases across the county and of those, 761 have recovered and five have died.
SUNY Oswego reported no new cases since yesterday.
“We are seeing increased numbers in local schools, households, family and group clusters. This shows us that community transmission is taking place,” said Oswego County Public Health Director Jiancheng Huang.
Thirteen cities and towns reported new cases in September, and in October, that number rose to 20 municipalities. The health department scrutinizes each case to identify close contacts and potential exposures in a timely manner.
“We appreciate the assistance of our school districts and other community partners in helping with these investigations,” Huang said. “Businesses and organizations need to comply with state and local directives and residents must help by practicing preventative measures. In the weeks and months ahead, this will be our most important strategy to help control the spread of the virus in Oswego County. Only together as a community will our efforts slow down COVID-19.”
Oswego County Legislative Chairman James Weatherup posted his weekly public briefing video on YouTube. In the video, he discussed Election Day and the Office for the Aging Administrator Sara Sunday talked about how the county is helping to make seniors feel less isolated during the holiday season.
“No matter the outcome is of today’s elections, as citizens, we still have the privilege of living in a democratic republic,” Weatherup said. “Oswego County is a strong community. We may have political differences, but I am very proud of the perseverance and generosity that our citizens have shown in supporting each other since the beginning of the pandemic.”
He quoted former President Dwight David Eisenhower who once said, “The history of free men is never really written by chance– but by choice– their choice.” He then said that everyone has the choice to do the right thing by continuing to look out for others and continuing measures to stop the spread of the virus.
Weatherup then discussed how seniors may feel isolated during the holidays this year as families have smaller gatherings. Sara Sunday spoke on how we as individuals and a community can help these seniors.
“With the holiday season fast approaching, many of us look forward to the time spent with family and friends,” Sunday said. “This year, due to travel restrictions, as well as the desire to stay healthy, your circle will be smaller, especially those elderly members of our community that will spend the holidays alone with limited personal interaction.”
Sunday said the Office for the Aging is bringing back the Santa for Seniors program to help combat this isolated feeling. It is meant for seniors who are lacking community and family support during the holidays. To nominate a senior for the program, call the Office for the Aging no later than November 13 (call 315-349-3484). You can also choose to “adopt” a senior. More information about the program can be found here[1].
Sunday also discussed the office’s selection of animatronic pets available for seniors and the Friendly Caller program. For more information on both programs, call the office at 315-349-3484 or email [email protected].
At the end of the briefing, Weatherup said the county is aware that there are still customers in stores and restaurants who will not wear a face mask.
“The sooner that we all accept we need to wear face coverings, social distance and do our part to control the spread, the sooner we will be able to ease more of the restrictions. Please stay home if you are sick and keep your children home from school or daycare if they are sick,” Weatherup said. “Thank you to our residents and businesses who are following the governor’s executive orders and health department guidelines and doing your part to prevent the spread of COVID-19.”
