OSWEGO COUNTY – According to the Oswego County Health Department, as of 3 p.m., there have been a total of 10 additional cases of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) from Monday, June 21 to Sunday, June 27.

“We are also sad to report that we have lost another resident to COVID-19 this past week,” said Oswego County Public Health Director Jiancheng Huang. “Every death is an unfortunate set-back in our efforts to fight this virus and something we never want to see. Our condolences go out to the family and friends of this patient.”

Oswego County’s daily case counts remain relatively low and its seven-day accumulative counts fluctuate at around 10. As a result, the County’s community transmission rate has varied between “low” and “moderate” in recent days according to the CDC’s report.  

“These things show us that the virus is still active in our county, which presents a continuous threat to our vulnerable community members,” Huang said. “It’s not too late to get your vaccine. There is still time to encourage those who are eligible for the vaccine to get it. Together, we can improve our vaccination rates and protect our loved ones and communities.”

The next Oswego County clinic is on Wednesday, June 30 at the Nick Sterio Public Health Clinic, 70 Bunner St., Oswego. The Pfizer vaccine will be administered to those aged 12 and over from 1 to 3 p.m. This is a two-dose vaccine and participants should plan to come back on Wednesday, July 21 for their second shot.

Walk-ins are welcomed, though appointments and online pre-registration are still appreciated to help reduce wait-times and maintain efficient clinic operations.

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.
