OSWEGO COUNTY – According to the Oswego County Health Department, there have been a total of 113 additional cases of COVID-19 (data from June 20 to June 26) this past week, and another COVID-19 related death has been reported.

“Every death is a sad development in our fight against COVID-19,” said Oswego County Interim Public Health Director Vera Dunsmoor. “Our condolences go out to the family and loved ones of this neighbor.”

The following report reflects data collected from Monday, June 20 through Sunday, June 26:

The Oswego County Health Department reminds residents to order their free at-home COVID-19 test kits as the number of at-home positive test results reported this week has tripled.

“Residents are now eligible to order a third round of test kits,” said Jodi Martin, director of preventive services for the Oswego County Health Department. “These at-home antigen tests are extremely useful for rapid detection of the COVID-19 virus. They can also detect if someone is still infectious. Go to www.COVID.gov[1] or call 1-800-232-0233 to order your tests today.”

An additional four Oswego County residents were hospitalized due to COVID-19 between Sunday, June 19 and Saturday, June 25, according to the hospitalization report received by the Oswego County Health Department. New hospitalization numbers are not part of a running total of hospitalizations. For hospitalization details such as age groups and vaccination status, go to the Oswego County COVID-19 Dashboard at https://oswegogis.maps.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/3fd162cd12264b418dc03bdebd7f5300[2].

Oswego County’s COVID-19 community level remains ‘low,’ according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The agency recommends that people get tested if they are experiencing symptoms and stay up to date with their COVID-19 vaccinations. People may follow other COVID-19 safety precautions such as wearing a face mask and physical distancing at any time, while always practicing proper hand hygiene. 

“It’s especially important, as families travel this summer, to be aware of what COVID-19 activity is like in the area where you’re visiting,” said Oswego County Associate Public Health Educator Diane Oldenburg. “Whether it’s a short daytrip or a longer vacation, knowing this will help you make smart decisions about the COVID-19 safety precautions you should take to protect yourself and your family.”

“This includes making sure that you and your family members are vaccinated and boosted as soon as you – and they – are eligible,” Oldenburg added. “The CDC now recommends everyone aged six months or older get vaccinated against COVID-19.”

The Oswego County Health Department holds vaccination clinics every Tuesday afternoon from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m. by appointment only. Clinics are also held the second Wednesday of each month, from 9 to 11 a.m. and 1 to 3 p.m. Walk-ins are accepted on Wednesdays, but residents are strongly encouraged to go to health.oswegocounty.com/vaccines[3] to make an appointment to avoid wait times.
