This pandemic is not even close to being over yet. Image

This virus continues to spread. ImageImage
There is a direct cause-and-effect relationship between the increase in the number of cases and the increase in the number of patients in our hospitals.

That is not up for debate. It’s simple math.

The President & his staff acted recklessly in coming to New Jersey knowing that they had been exposed to someone with a confirmed positive test.

We hope that no confirmed cases come out of the event in Bedminster.

This is a matter of humanity, but also of leadership by example.
Contact tracing efforts ARE underway following last week’s fundraising event with the President at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster. We are tracing:
☑️206 attendees at the two separate events
☑️19 staff members who were involved in both events
Working with @CDCgov, we’ve contacted out-of-state attendees.

The @NJDeptofHealth, in partnership with the Somerset County Health Dept and local officials in Bedminster, is leading contact-tracing efforts within New Jersey – including the staff at the golf club.
