“We are wishing for speedy recoveries for each of the residents battling this insidious disease in Camden County today,” Camden County Freeholder Director Louis Cappelli Jr. said. “Our residents have done an incredible job fighting the spread of coronavirus, but I know how hard it is to put normal life on hold month after month. The truth is that we don’t know how long this fight will last, but we know it will be shorter if we remain committed to the principles that brought New Jersey back from one of the worst outbreaks in the country. Wear a mask, social distance, and work with contact tracers when they call. If we work together, we will get through this stronger than we have ever been.”
