NEW JERSEY – As New Jersey marks its fourth day in a row with more than 1,000 coronavirus cases a day, the state’s Governor, Phil Murphy, urged residents to avoid nonessential interstate travel.
One day after announcing that a a member of his cabinet had tested positive, Murphy announced while in preventive quarantine Thursday that its residents should avoid traveling to other states unless necessary.
“New Jerseyans should avoid all unnecessary interstate travel,” he said. “The numbers that we get from day to day are alarming.”
