It appears that the state's vigilance is paying off. Seven weeks after Gov. Phil Murphy issued the mandatory stay-at-home order, the curve of the coronavirus outbreak is plateauing. Murphy said we’ve avoided the worst of it -- for now.
The statewide total of confirmed coronavirus cases reached 130,593 Tuesday. That’s with another 2,494 positive cases added. New Jersey’s total fatalities have now reached 8,244 with 334 new COVID-related deaths. There is still a suspected lag in the reporting due to a systemwide outage over the weekend.
The state is reporting a small spike in the number of hospitalizations since Sunday. But charts show 3,000 fewer hospitalized patients over the last three weeks. At 5,328 it's the lowest the rate’s been in a month. The curve is still moving in the right direction across the state with one full week of declining critical care patients and ventilator use also down.
