280 additional lab-confirmed COVID-19 positives reported today
Due to the current surge in cases, CCHD and NYS have begun prioritizing calls to lab-confirmed COVID-19 positive cases to the highest-risk cases. This means the active isolation and quarantine numbers will no longer be accurate day-to-day. As such, CCHD will now report only new lab processed cases, the total number of cases, and the total number of deaths each week-day.
NYS has launched self-serve portals for those requiring isolation or quarantine orders. Please note, these orders are for lab-confirmed positives and their close contacts only. To learn more visit https://coronavirus.health.ny.gov/contact-tracing….
