Weekly COVID-19 Statistics Update: May 31, 2022

OSWEGO COUNTY – According to the Oswego County Health Department, there have been a total of 204 additional cases of COVID-19 (data from May 23 to May 29).

There was no report yesterday due to Memorial Day.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) lowered Oswego County’s community level to “low” last Thursday, recommending that people keep their COVID-19 vaccinations up to date and get tested if they have symptoms.

“Much of the Northeast is seeing the same downward trend,” said Oswego County Associate Public Health Educator Diane Oldenburg. “However, other parts of the U.S. are seeing increases in cases, hospitalizations and deaths. As the unofficial start of summer is here, and summer travel plans may take us to other parts of the country, it’s important for us to stay vigilant.”

Oswego County Director of Preventive Health Services Jodi Martin, MSN-PHN, also reminds residents that the virus is still very active in our communities and across the state.

“So far, at least a quarter of Oswego County residents have had COVID-19 since the pandemic started, and we lost close to 200 residents to the disease,” she said. “Vaccination remains the best tool to prevent severe cases, hospitalization, and death. Residents should stay up to date on their COVID-19 vaccinations. In addition, some members of our community may choose to continue to wear masks and we should respect their decision to do so.”

Oldenburg added, “If you have symptoms, get tested and stay home. Together we can continue to protect ourselves and our community.”

The following report reflects data collected from Monday, May 23 through Sunday, May 29:

An additional six Oswego County residents were hospitalized due to COVID-19 between Sunday, May 22 and Saturday, May 28, according to the hospitalization report received by the Oswego County Health Department. New hospitalization numbers are not part of a running total of hospitalizations.

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[2] to make an appointment to avoid wait times.
