January Was Woodbridge's Worst Month On Record For Coronavirus

WOODBRIDGE, NJ — January was officially Woodbridge's worst month on record for the coronavirus, much worse than any months last spring when the pandemic first started, said Mayor John McCormac.

The good news is that a large majority of Woodbridge's January cases were in the first half of the month.

"So things are slowing down just a bit," said McCormac. "We will take good news any way we can get it."

Woodbridge Twp. had a total of 2,081 new cases in January compared to 1,986 in December, the town's second worst month.

Woodbridge had 160 new cases of coronavirus from the general public over the weekend (Jan. 30/31) with 57 on Friday, 61 on Saturday and 42 on Sunday. There were also three new deaths to report: A man, 89, and women, ages 67 and 51.
