New daily confirmed cases of COVID-19 remain in the double-digits in Chautauqua County, but hospitalizations have largely stayed the same.

The county Health Department recorded 26 new cases on Wednesday, which includes information collected the previous day. The cases break down as follows: seven in the Fredonia zip code, three in Dunkirk, two each in Jamestown, Brocton, Frewsburg and Lakewood, and one each in Silver Creek, Cassadaga, Chautauqua, Kennedy, Mayville, Panama, Sinclairville and Westfield.

A key measure in tracking COVID has been those with the virus in the hospital. In Chautauqua County, there have been about 12 hospitalizations reported for the last week. Entering April, there were five people in the hospital, though not necessarily because of the coronavirus.

The number remained below 10 for most of March, and is down from the nearly 30 reported in February.
