Gov. Phil Murphy said Monday that New Jersey's supply of COVID-19 vaccine is currently too low to let elderly residents outside of nursing homes get shots — a stark contrast to New York, which will begin administering the vaccine to those 75 and older this week.
The decision comes as frustration with New Jersey's slow vaccine rollout mounts, while hundreds of thousands of doses have yet to be administered almost a month into the vaccination campaign.
"My sleeve is rolled up," said Paul Wild, 75, of Monmouth County. "It is very disconcerting that the resources are available and not being fully implemented."
