Feb. 3 Lab-confirmed positive COVID-19: +31, Deaths +1

Since our 2/2 update, 31 additional lab-confirmed COVID-19 positive cases have been reported. CCHD has received notification of an additional COVID-19 related death of a Clinton County resident. This death brings the total number of COVID-19 related deaths in Clinton County to twenty-two.
Yesterday an announcement was made adding restaurant workers and taxi drivers to the 1B vaccination group. This is dependent on vaccine availability in each area. As we await further instruction from NYSDOH, please be patient. CCHD has not been allocated additional vaccine for this purpose. Those impacted should continue to monitor the NYSDOH “Am I Eligible?” website for changes in registration eligibility.
