Over two days, Chautauqua County reported 18 new COVID-19 cases. Saturday’s number was six with Sunday being another 12.

Overall, the county has 693 cases of COVID-19. The county was to provide more information on Monday.

Through Friday, the city of Dunkirk had the most cases at 169; Jamestown was second with 161 and Fredonia had 154. The next highest amount was Silver Creek with 22 cases.

Also, Sunday state Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo today updated New Yorkers on the progress during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In the top 20 ZIP codes in areas that have seen recent outbreaks – Brooklyn, Queens and Rockland and Orange Counties – 5,392 tests were conducted, yielding 261 positives or a 4.8 percent positivity rate. In the remainder of the state, 104,937 tests were conducted yielding 961 positives or a 0.91 percent positivity rate.

“Local governments have not done an effective job of enforcement in these hot spot ZIP codes. The State will be doing aggressive enforcement starting tomorrow,” Governor Cuomo said. “As we saw with bars and restaurants, when the State initiated enforcement actions compliance greatly increased. However, the State cannot take over effective enforcement for every jurisdiction and if a local jurisdiction cannot or will not perform effective enforcement of violating entities, notify the State and we will close all business activity in the hot spots where the local governments cannot do compliance.”

Positive tests in Western New York, both Friday and Saturday, were at 1.1%.
