CamCo logs 75 new COVID cases

County sees decline after two months of increases

The Camden County Department of Health is announcing 75 additional confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in Camden County. This brings the aggregate number of confirmed positive cases to 48,082 in Camden County today and 1,175 total fatalities.

“We are finally seeing a decline in cases after two months of increased figures,” said County Commissioner Director Louis Cappelli, Jr. “With news that the state will be lifting most capacity restrictions on indoor and outdoor gatherings in the coming weeks, now is the perfect time to get your vaccine shot if you haven’t already. It takes several weeks for the final dose of any COVID-19 vaccine to be fully effective, so getting vaccinated now would put that protection almost in line with the governor’s reopening schedule. Remember, this virus is not gone, and the pandemic is not over, just because restrictions are lifted, please continue to mindful of the health and safety of others as we take this next step forward.”
