“We have seen the new daily case counts reduced in the past week; however, the data shows us that the virus is still active in our community. We hope residents continue to practice preventive measures,” said Oswego County Public Health Director Jiancheng Huang. “In addition, the COVID-19 vaccine is widely available, and we encourage eligible residents to get their vaccination. Vaccine is the safest tool to prevent severe COVID-19 cases, hospitalization and death. The health department is rolling out more vaccination clinics in many schools and other community settings, and residents are welcome to come to those clinics, too.”

An additional 24 Oswego County residents were hospitalized due to COVID-19 between Sunday, Jan. 23 and Saturday, Jan. 29, according to the hospitalization report received by the Oswego County Health Department. New hospitalization numbers are not part of a running total of hospitalizations. 

The age distribution of the 24 new patients is: 0.00% aged 0 to 18 years; 35.71% aged 19 to 45 years; 25.00% aged 46 to 64 years; and 39.29% aged 65 years and older. 

Individuals fully vaccinated with a booster shot or third dose made up 17.86% of new hospitalizations, while 42.85% were vaccinated but overdue for a booster dose and 39.29% were not vaccinated or not fully vaccinated. 

As of Monday, Jan. 31, 37,222 Oswego County residents have received their third shot or booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. That is up from 27,017 on Sunday, Dec. 26 when the County began reporting this data.

As part of its ongoing effort to promote vaccination in the community, the Oswego County Health Department continues to hold vaccination clinics across the county, including some in collaboration with the New York State Department of Health (DOH) and local schools. In addition, vaccines are also widely available at local pharmacies and health care provider offices. 

Clinics will be held at the Oswego County Health Department’s Nick Sterio Public Health Clinic, 70 Bunner St., Oswego on Tuesday, Feb. 1 and Wednesday Feb. 2. 

The Feb. 1 clinic is for children aged 5 to 11. Health Department staff will administer first and second doses of the pediatric Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine from 2 to 3:30 p.m. Please note appointments are required for this clinic. 

The Feb. 2 clinic is for individuals aged 18 and older. Health Department staff will administer first, second and booster doses of the Moderna vaccine from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m.

Health department staff will also hold a clinic Thursday, Feb. 3 at Oswego High School, 2 Buccaneer Blvd. Staff will administer first and second doses of the pediatric Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for children aged 5 to 11, in addition to first, second and booster doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for anyone aged 12 and older.

“Vaccination continues to be our best defense against COVID-19,” said Oswego County Medical Director Christina Liepke, M.D. “The vaccine helps to lower the risk of hospitalization and death from the virus. However, it’s good to know that there are now medicines that have received emergency use authorization from the FDA and the CDC for the treatment of COVID-19… As at-home COVID-19 testing becomes more prevalent, it’s important for people to notify their primary care provider if their result is positive. To receive these treatments, patients must meet certain eligibility criteria such as vaccination status, age and other risk factors. Their doctor can tell them if they are eligible.”
