Total cases in Franklin Township: 280
Fortunately new fatalities reported in Franklin Township: 0

I realize this is a shocking number; I’ll be asking questions of the health officials. I will let you know when I know more. If I know it, you will know it.

If there was ever a time to say this it’s now STAY HOME. TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY. SOCIAL DISTANCING. Look, seven people from 19-28.

STAY HOME. when you can't stay home, WEAR A MASK!!!!!!!

I do not answer questions about location of the positives. I do not have that information. For the reasons why please see my post on March 31

I do not have information on recoveries. I too have asked that information and I don’t get it.

Please see the status map. Due to reporting vs posting time our numbers can vary from the map numbers.

The State dashboard can be found here

The NYC site has more detailed information on patient demographics. I, along with you, wish it was available for NJ.

One for all. PK

I have become aware of a slide presented by the NJ Department of Health. I was not called about this information even though it has been up for 21hrs. I have a call into the state to find out 1) what is the basis of this information and 2) why I wasn't called.

I usually don't like to post information until I know the whole story but I wanted you to know about it as soon as possible and to know I'm looking into it.

• The State and County are closing their parks. The Twp will also. As of sunset tonight all Twp parks are closed. We will be patrolling. THIS WILL BE ENFORCED.
• The state will be reporting preexisting conditions as it relates to death.
• We are progressing on the test site Somerset Co.
• The June Primary may be rescheduled.
• There were 128 new cases in the county.
• I am still awaiting information on my prior (Hot Spots) post
