Weekly COVID-19 Statistics Update: July 27 – August 2

by Kassadee Bradshaw | August 2, 2021 3:57 pm

OSWEGO COUNTY – According to the Oswego County Health Department, as of 3 p.m., there have been a total of 52 additional cases of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) this past week.

“We have seen weekly accumulated case counts steadily increase in recent weeks, from less than 10 per week in the first 10 days of July, to 52 this past week,” said Oswego County Public Health Director Jiancheng Huang. “This rise is likely associated with the Delta variant of the coronavirus that has been spreading across the country in recent months. This variant is more infectious than other strains that have circulated previously. While some of our newly-diagnosed cases have been in fully-vaccinated people, it is important to remember that the vaccine is effective in preventing severe illness, hospitalization and death.

“We continue to work with health care providers to deliver the vaccine to all areas of the county,” he added. “I am pleased to see an increased volume of people at our recent vaccination clinics, both here at the county health department building and in other parts of the county. For those who have not yet received the vaccine, it’s not too late. You can still get vaccinated to protect yourselves, your loved ones and our community.” 

The Oswego County Health Department will hold another vaccination clinic this week. It is scheduled for Wednesday, Aug. 4 at the Nick Sterio Public Health Clinic, 70 Bunner St., Oswego.

From 1 to 5:30 p.m., health staff will administer the Pfizer vaccine to those aged 12 and above. It is a two-dose series, so those who get this vaccine should plan to return on Wednesday, Aug. 25 for their second shot. 

From 4 to 5:30 p.m., health staff will also administer the Moderna vaccine. It is only approved for those aged 18 and above and is also a two-dose series. Those who get this vaccine should plan to return on Wednesday, Sept. 1 for their second shot.

Notes: The total number of positive cases in Oswego County is cumulative since March 2020 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.

The first two cases in Oswego County were confirmed March 22, 2020. missing or outdated ad config
