COVID-19 cases continue to surge in our community, with 63 cases reported for the two-week period ending December 17th.
The Omicron variant has quickly taken hold in New Jersey and we can expect to see more cases in the coming weeks. We know that being fully vaccinated and boosted is the best way to protect yourself from severe illness, but because this variant is highly transmissible it is vital to do what we can to reduce its spread and protect those in our community who remain vulnerable. Masking, physical distancing, and ventilation are effective measures to reduce risk & please get tested if you may have been exposed, are having symptoms, and before gathering with loved ones at higher risk of severe illness this holiday season.
