OSWEGO COUNTY – According to the Oswego County Health Department, as of 3 p.m., there have been 27 additional cases of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) since yesterday.

The cumulative reported number 546 is cases across the county and of those, four have died.

Twenty-two of the new cases are associated with the SUNY Oswego community.

“The Oswego County Health Department is aware of the differences between the SUNY Oswego and Oswego County COVID-19 dashboards,” said Oswego County Public Health Director Jiancheng Huang. “This is due to different scopes and timing in reporting. The college’s dashboard includes all students, including students from different counties, whereas the county’s dashboard includes only those who are living in Oswego County. Students who went to their home county and tested positive there are included in the college’s numbers but not Oswego County’s. Also, the county and the college have different working procedures and cut-off times for reporting.”
