Total numbers are provided by the local health department. If the public does not answer the contact tracers or the local health department making their inquiries, the City is unable to know what happens after a case is confirmed, nor do we know how many tests are administered or how many tests are negative. Their for numbers would show inaccurate.
If you suspect you have COVID-19 symptoms, there is an online self-assessment tool, developed by the State of New Jersey, that will help you determine whether or not you should be tested. You can access that self-assessment tool here. If you are experiencing symptoms related to COVID-19, including fever, coughing, and difficulty breathing, please call your primary care physician before going anywhere and follow the physician's advice.
