TOMS RIVER - Ocean County Sheriff Michael G. Mastronardy has called on all residents to wear a face mask if they must go out in public, following new guidance from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to slow the spread of COVID-19.

The admonition is not mandatory, but doing so could help save lives, Mastronardy said, who has started wearing a face mask of his own when in public.

Murphy said state officials hope to have a more detailed briefing on statistics and projections Monday.

Officials said Saturday’s 200 new deaths do not mean all those victims died in the last 24 hours because of the testing backlog.

It’s difficult to calculate exactly how many New Jerseyans are currently infected with the virus because the state officials say test results are backed up by as much as two weeks.

Saturday’ figures included 41 fewer cases but 77 more deaths than what officials reported Friday

Here is the latest county-by-county breakdown of confirmed coronavirus cases and fatalities as of Saturday afternoon, according to the state tracking website:
  • Bergen County: 5,760 cases, with 179 deaths
  • Essex County: 3,584 cases, with 155 deaths
  • Hudson County: 3,491 cases, with 78 deaths
  • Union County: 2,916 cases, with 66 deaths
  • Passaic County: 2,856 cases, with 38 deaths
  • Middlesex County: 2,578 cases, with 76 deaths
  • Monmouth County: 2,065 cases, with 54 deaths
  • Ocean County: 2,003 cases, with 56 deaths
  • Morris County: 1,618 cases, with 51 deaths
  • Somerset County: 765 cases, with 24 deaths
  • Mercer County: 586 cases, with 13 deaths
  • Camden County: 481 cases, with 8 deaths
  • Burlington County: 469 cases, with 10 deaths
  • Sussex County: 236 cases, with 9 deaths
  • Gloucester County: 215 cases, with 3 deaths
  • Warren County: 182 cases, with 6 deaths
  • Hunterdon County: 171 cases, with 1 death
  • Atlantic County: 98 cases, with 1 death
  • Cape May County: 50 cases, with 0 deaths
  • Cumberland County: 40 cases, with 2 deaths
  • Salem County: 25 cases, with 2 deaths
The state is also testing only symptomatic people and reporting an average of only 5,000 tests a day, which officials attribute to a lack of manpower and supplies from the federal government.

Just one month after recording its first infection, New Jersey now has at least 34,124 known cases of the coronavirus, including 846 deaths, as state officials announced 4,331 new cases and 200 new fatalities, expected to keep worsening in the coming days.

Officials have said the peak of cases is likely to hit this month, while Murphy has said he expects the fallout from the virus to last “deep into May.”

N.J. coronavirus deaths spike to 846 with 34,124 total cases. Death toll now surpasses 9/11 for state residents.

City in New Jersey now requiring all employees of essential businesses to wear face covers and gloves

"Today, the Hoboken Office of Emergency Management issued a directive requiring that all employees of essential businesses, including but not limited to supermarkets, pharmacies and all restaurants and food establishments, wear a face cover and gloves while at work and serving customers," read the statement from Mayor Bhalla. "Face covers can include a bandana or scarf, or similar material. Face masks are also permitted, however, N95 masks and other PPE are urged to be left for medical professionals and first responders."
 
N.J.’s coronavirus outbreak may have started at a NY's Yonkers Raceway

Many of New Jersey’s early coronavirus cases can be traced to Yonkers Raceway, harness racing and a handful of days in early March, interviews with five people connected to the sport said.

The Westchester County, New York track likely was ground zero for a cluster of infections that resulted in four of the earliest recorded deaths in New Jersey, people with strong links to the facility said. It also was tied to two deaths outside the state and at least 12 other cases in the outbreak’s first month.
 
Earlier this morning I was reading my hometown FB page. The Rumson police broke up a party of 30 "40-50" year old adults, and no one was fined.

New Jersey’s “knucklehead hall of shame," Lakewood residents were charged and others around NJ, but not the Rumson residents? They did not care about the harm they could do to others

Governor Murphy said many times that social distancing guidelines must be followed and those holding parties and celebrations, will be fined.

"An impromptu Pink Floyd cover band concert held Saturday night on the front lawn of a Rumson home and attended by about 30 middle-aged adults was busted by police who warned the public about hosting similar get-togethers that violate Gov. Phil Murphy’s ban on social gatherings amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Officers were called to the area of Blackpoint Road near Wood Lane and found two guitarists equipped with microphones and amplifiers who were also broadcasting the concert via Facebook Live. Responding officers were met with comments like “F-the police” and “welcome to Nazi Germany” from the crowd when they were told to leave, according to a Facebook post from the Rumson Police.

No charges were filed but borough police said they will now have a zero tolerance approach for future “corona-parties” and will charge anyone involved with disorderly conduct."

Party throwers beware. New Jersey officials are clamping down on gatherings that violate Gov. Phil Murphy's executive orders, which are meant to slow the spread of the coronavirus in the Garden State.

New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal and State Police Col. Patrick Callahan announced on Sunday charges and summonses against businesses and people — including two violations at the Jersey Shore — that violated social distancing orders.

"Law enforcement and medical professionals are on the frontlines of this battle to protect the citizens of New Jersey from the COVID-19 virus, and we cannot stress enough how important it is that each person follow the guidelines set forth in the Executive Order," Callahan, who serves as Superintendent of the New Jersey State Police, said in a news release. "I have said that law enforcement will act swiftly against those who blatantly place the lives of others at risk."

Those charged or issued summonses were:
  • John Maldjian, 54, of Rumson who played acoustic guitar versions of Pink Floyd songs on the front porch of his home and attracted a crowd that became unruly when asked to leave, according to authorities. Rumson Police charged him with reckless endangerment, disorderly conduct, and two separate charges related to violating the emergency orders, according to state authorities.
If convicted, the violations can carry a sentence of up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $1,000. Some of the charges are indictable offenses, such as terroristic threats during a state of emergency, which can carry a sentence of up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $150,000.
There are six more people listed.

When I read it at 3 am, the words written made it seem like it was only a warning, "If we have to respond to another "corona party" we will be using a zero tolerance approach and everyone involved will be charged with Disorderly Conduct." Others were fined in NJ towns that broke the rules, it did not seem right.

In an ideal world, New Jersey's best guess as to when hospitals will hit their biggest influx of patients would become more clear as the state passes the two-week anniversary of Gov. Phil Murphy's stay-at-home order and mandatory widespread business closures on Saturday.

But delays in testing results, a lack of comprehensive testing and unknowns such as the number of infected people and the hospitalization rate will likely make it weeks before New Jersey has a better picture of where it stands in the coronavirus pandemic.

Two weeks is the estimated amount of time it could take for a person infected by the novel coronavirus to begin showing symptoms, and therefore to be eligible for a test in a state with a shortage of test kits. This is when New Jersey could begin to understand if its social distancing mandates are working, officials have said. But since the state is facing delaysof a week or more in receiving test results, it may still be weeks before the public can see the true scope of the effectiveness of restricting movement.

It's been two weeks of staying at home. When will NJ know scale of coronavirus impact?
 
Gov Murphy:
BREAKING: To further social distancing, I’m signing an Executive Order closing ALL:
️State parks and forests
County parks

We’ve seen far too many instances in our parks where people are gathering and socializing in groups. We need to #FlattenTheCurve.

I do not take this action lightly. Some of my fondest memories with my own children are beautiful spring days in parks playing soccer and enjoying our family.

But my focus, and my sole mission in life right now, is the health of every New Jersey family.

Governor Phil Murphy

We currently have 7,017 hospitalizations, including COVID-19 positive patients and persons under investigations.

1,651 individuals are in critical care. 94% of those individuals – 1,540 individuals – are on ventilators.
 
Certain areas are higher because of population density that should have never happened. In the past 20 years Lakewood in Ocean county has increased their population dramatically, and approved too many high density housing developments, against the wishes of many longtime residents. Condo projects were built and people/families jammed in like sardines all so a builder can have optimum profits. Now we deal with the aftermath. So sad. Hope we learn from all this.
