“We are encouraged to see that the rate of new cases in Camden County remains consistent with where it has been over the last ten days,” Camden County Freeholder Director Louis Cappelli Jr. said. “Our team is continuing to work closely with our partners throughout the community to attack this virus, protect our vulnerable citizens, and save lives. We are actively working to identify areas which are experiencing greater rates of viral activity, and we are continuing to monitor the situation in our long-term care facilities where roughly one in four of our cases have occurred. While we are making progress, I want to continue to urge our residents not to be lulled into thinking our fight is nearly over. The truth is this fight is going to take time, but it can be made shorter if we continue to social distance, wear face covers or masks, and follow the governor’s orders.”
According to the Camden County Department of Health, 1,078 of the county's cases have been connected to the county's 56 long-term care facilities. A total of 173 of the county's 218 deaths have been connected to these nursing homes, according to officials.
