More Good Signs In COVID Battle For Utica-Rome-Herkimer
There were no COVID deaths reported in Oneida or Herkimer counties in the latest update from health officials on Wednesday.
Oneida County continues to see fewer and fewer virus-related deaths. Wednesday's update marked the third time in the last five days the county didn't lose a life to coronavirus. The county did add 45 new cases.
Oneida County's seven day average for new cases per day in is in the mid-forties. That's a slight uptick from last week, where the seven-day average dropped into the 30 - but still a far cry from the area's peak that saw most days with a new case total above 300.
