UPDATE: INDOOR DINING WILL NO LONGER RESUME ON THURSDAY. We had planned to loosen restrictions this week. However, after #COVID19 spikes in other states driven by, in part, the return of indoor dining, we have decided to postpone indoor dining indefinitely.

NEW: @NewJerseyDEP has launched the #MaskUpNJ campaign to encourage more New Jerseyans to wear face coverings at New Jersey parks and beaches. Be a model for others. Take part. If you think you look silly wearing a face covering – imagine how silly you’d look in a hospital gown.

In just a week, cases at a farm in Salem County grew from 5 to 59. That means over half of the migrant workers there have been infected. Advocates are calling for their protection. njspotlight.com/2020/05/more… via @njspotlight
hey all mask haters--this is a paper mask + the top 8 inches of queen sized pantyhose over. It closes paper mask gaps & filters 96+% of small virus particles (an n95 does 98-99). plus it is light and easy to breathe thru--jus wrnt for a brisque walk and like it the most!

Social distancing is all we have to save lives. We’re saving them. But, we need to save more. Keep practicing your social distancing. Keep wearing a face covering when out in public.

NEW: I’m signing an EO to extend our public health emergency by 30 days. To be clear: this does not mean we’re seeing anything in the data which would pause our path forward. These declarations, unless extended, expire after 30 days. We’re still in a public health emergency.

Gov. Murphy gave personal shout out to former Senator Bill Bradley, who has helped bring 750,000 masks to the state. Murphy said many of those masks have come from UNIQLO (led by CEO Tadashi Yanai) and the Joe and Clara Tsai Foundation.

People of America! I want to talk about two photos that tell the story of food in our country in this moment...two different, painful realities that we are experiencing, and the opportunity we must seize to make sure food is not the problem but the solution 1/

Pence’s failure to wear a mask sets a horrible example and underlines a largely unspoken problem: the idea that REAL MEN DON’T WEAR FACEMASKS. Going barefaced isn’t macho; it’s stupid.

Two weeks ago, Dr. Fauci said that he'd want Brad Pitt to play him. Two weeks later, Brad Pitt is playing Dr. Fauci on SNL.

If we make a bad move, it's going to set us back. Frankly, this is no time to act stupidly. Period. I don't know how else to say it.
