The Columbia County Department of Health has released its numbers for today. Since Saturday, there have been fifteen new cases of COVID-19. The number of active cases being reported today is four fewer than on Saturday, from which it can be inferred that, in the past two days, nineteen county residents have recovered from the virus. The number of county residents in mandatory quarantine today is 24 fewer than on Saturday, but the number hospitalized with the virus and in the ICU remains the same. There has not been a death from COVID-19 in Columbia County since August 19.
The New York Forward dashboard is reporting a positivity rate for Columbia County from Saturday to Sunday of 2.9 percent and a seven-day average of 3.4 percent. By comparison, the daily positivity rate for the Capital Region was 4.4 percent and the seven-day average was 4.6 percent.
A year ago today, the CCDOH reported no new cases of COVID-19. The total number of cases was 542, and the number of active cases was 8. There were 31 county residents in mandatory quarantine, 1 was hospitalized, and none was in the ICU. The total number of deaths attributed to COVID-19 at this time last year was 37.
What impact, if any, does the additional 12,000+ deaths intentionally under reported by the Cuomo bunch have on the number of deaths reported in Columbia County? The NYT has updated NY deaths to 53,000+ but the NYSDOH website is still reporting about 43,000+
ReplyDeleteAre there any County statistics as to the number of breakthrough cases, and Delta variant cases?
