OSWEGO COUNTY – The technical difficulties experienced recently by the Oswego County Health Department online portal used to self-report at-home positive COVID-19 tests have been fully resolved. People can continue to self-report at-home positive tests to the portal and will receive isolation orders via email after completing submission.
The Oswego County Health Department reported 177 residents have tested positive for COVID-19 from Monday, Nov. 28 through Sunday, Dec. 4. This includes both lab-confirmed and at-home tests.
The breakdown of data collected during that time period is as follows:
- Number of lab/provider tests: 2,155
- Number of lab/provider positive cases: 119
- Percentage of lab/provider positive cases: 5.52%
- Number of at-home positive test results: 58*
*43 of at-home positive tests were reported on Nov. 30. This number is a total of at-home tests reported from Nov.19 through Nov. 30, when the self-reporting online portal was experiencing technical difficulties.
Oswego County’s COVID-19 community level remains “low,” according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The agency and the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) now recommend that people wear a mask if they have been exposed to COVID-19, have symptoms or have tested positive for the virus. It is also recommended that people stay up to date with their COVID-19 vaccinations and get tested if they have symptoms.
