NEW JERSEY – Gov. Phil Murphy called the statistics “sobering” as New Jersey reported 1,301 new COVID-19 positive test results during the Thursday new briefing on the pandemic. The last time the numbers were so high was just after Memorial Day.
“The last time we were at that level of positivity was May 29,” Murphy said. “And it was 1,394.”
Murphy said that 22 percent were from Ocean County, and 10 percent were from Monmouth. While those two counties remain the “greatest focus”of the crisis, it is far from NJ’s only focus.
