Submitted by Oswego County Sheriff Dept.

With the uptick in COVID cases in our region, Oswego County Sheriff's Office has also been affected. Amongst our approximate 200 employees, we currently have 23 employees and six inmates in our correctional facility that have tested positive. As all staff and inmates are being tested, we anticipate those numbers will rise.

As we head into the holiday season, I encourage our residents to use common sense and make safe choices for your families. Social distance when possible, isolate and get tested if you are  symptomatic.

Our agency will not be responding to complaints of excessive persons in a private residence.
