“Every loss of life that occurs because of the scourge of COVID-19 is devastating to our community. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families whose loved ones have succumbed to coronavirus, and we continue to wish for speedy recovery of all residents who have tested positive,” said Freeholder Louis Cappelli, Jr.
“The Freeholder Board is continuing to focus on securing testing access for as many of our residents as possible, and on addressing the critical lack of preparedness and resources in long-term care facilities where this disease has wreaked havoc. As we look around the country at states that are beginning to ease restrictions, we cannot lose sight of why we remain under stay at home orders. We cannot afford a second surge in cases, and we do not yet have the testing capacity to reopen for select individuals. The only way to keep ourselves safe at this time continues to be social distancing and staying home.”
The Department of Health is also announcing 97 additional positive cases of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) identified in Camden County. Trace investigations are being facilitated with the patients and remain ongoing.
