Person kelly. Another familiar face, the state epidemiologist christina tam. Another guy who needs no introduction, state Police Superintendent pat callahan. Director of the office of george maples is with us. On thursday we announced a plan by which the jersey shore could reopen for the summer season. I am proud to a downs proud to announce in addition to the goers canur shore enjoy time on the water as well. Today i am signing an executive order that will allow Fishing Charters and other chartered Boat Services and watercraft rentals to resume effective at 17. A. M. Tomorrow, may in both instances we will require specific social distancing and sanitation measures to be followed including the implementation of online or telephone payment lessen to listen direct contact. One of those who require all passenger and customer logs be properly maintained for the purposes of Contact Tracing should that be required. We are confident in taking these steps for getting our state back on the road for the reason we have been able to take the other steps we have announced to restart our economy and begin our recovery because the data says it is possible. Public Health Creates economic health. Dates. Termines i had a good conversation with one of the restart Recovery Commission members, ben bernanke, former chair of the federal reserve. We covered a number of topics. I said i want to make sure we have got this right. He was overwhelmingly of the same opinion, you have got to deal with the virus first, create confidence around Public Health and with that are you able to take the steps we need to take as it relates to economic recovery and reopening. We are in a position, back to both of these principles, of being able to put some of this as you have seen into practice. We know that the trends we needed to see have emerged in our hospitals which is where we have the best opportunity to track the impact of covid19. Across the board, every metric we have followed is showing us we can move forward. You have got new hospitalization , patients in the hospital, onients in icu, patients ventilators not just down dramatically from the peaks, but they are down meaningfully even over the past couple of weeks. If you flip over a green ball means we are having a good day, meaning whatever the determinate is is going down and not up. We have had many more good than bad and many of those good days have come with significant decreases. The only three red balls we are showing is new hospitalizations. We see this across every region of the state with trendlines continually moving in the right directions. As you can see as judy predicted , the south has got the most amount of red balls but even there we have had a good stretch of late. While we know we are not entirely out of the woods as you can see here, new jersey is beginning to fall more in line with some of the big states and neighbors we compare ourselves to. We are taking a broadly regional approach to our research and recovery, this is a good sign as we look at where we are relative to connecticut, new york and pennsylvania. It is a stretch to call california and texas neighbors, but we take our hats off to them. Or watercraft rental businesses can begin preparing vessels for folks starting tomorrow morning. Even with social distancing, we are confident everyone can have a safe and memorable summer. Trump,to thank president and whom i spoke yesterday, the federal administration for their approval of one . 4 billion in cares act funding for nj transit. This is vital for our mass transit systems, the bus, rail, light rail and paratransit. Throughout this emergency many frontline workers across essential industries have relied on nj transit to get them to and from their jobs. As we begin our restart, having this working as it should will be vital to our recovery as more residents are getting back to work. Certainly we know it will need more assistance to make up for the significant loss in fares. I will work with the white house and other federal officials and our delegation and people in congress to bring assistance to our state. But this 1. 4 billion is necessary and it is welcomed. Before i get to the overnight numbers, i want to knowledge the passage of the latest covid19 relief package. We are all realists. Any final bill that reaches the president s desk will not like look like the one the house house last night but the bill has necessary measures for our state wide recovery and national recovery. I speak directly to the inclusion of 1 trillion for state and governmental assistance so we can support our frontline Public Health workforce, First Responders, educators and more in local and State Government have been behind the scenes keeping communities together and strong. Absent direct state assistance, our ability to pull ourselves off of the match will be made that much harder if not impossible without taccone and cuts to the very programs and jobs we will be relying upon to pull us off of the mat. Without this assistance, the progress to pull the jerseys finances back to respectability, record surpluses, putting aside hundreds of millions of dollars for a rainy day will be undone. We need this relief now. I urge senator mcconnell to listen to the growing bipartisan chorus in the senate who understand what this means for states and to sit down with speaker policy and negotiate a final bill to send to the president for his signature we we have an extraordinary congressional delegation in the senate and house, but we are not the only ones with the. I have had good conversations with both delaware senators. Senator cowans, about a range of topics. Senator carper specifically about getting us to the point we have got bipartisan support we need to get direct state cash assistance. I cannot thank them both enough for their leadership and help. There is no time left to waste. We are up against this. This is not theoretical abstract. Municipalities are laying people off. Lets turn to the overnight numbers. Yesterday we received 1239 positive test result for a statewide total of 145,089. The trendline on cases continues to show how far we have come down. The Positivity Rate for the from may 12 and almost every time i talk about spot positivity i am happy to say the number of days has been shrinking or at most only a handful. This is 22 . Fouris from samples taken days ago. Here is how the Positivity Rate is reflected across each region of the state. Each one is trending close to the others. It is a good sign the spread has slowed not just in certain regions what statewide. The map puts this fact into a different perspective and nearly every county can count the rate of dublin in terms of weeks and months and that is a good improvement. In our hospitals the number of patients being treated for 3564. 19 dropped to field medical stations reported 45 patients. This is a breakdown across regions. All are trending in a good direction. Here are total hospitalizations per 100,000 residents across regions to give a more balanced picture. Looking at our longterm care facilities, we cannot and will not ignore this devastation. 27,825 positive cases. The bars are not going up as they were. We are continually taking steps to further slow and stop them. And we continue to see an outsized proportion of the blessed lives lost, covid19 deaths more than half related to longterm care facilities. I want to repeat something i mentioned yesterday. We can mourn the loss of our thousand 322 lives in our longterm care facilities, and will. We must and we at the same time through all of the efforts by judy, the national guard, the v. A. , the attorney general, the operators themselves and the heroic Frontline Health care workers who go in and out of these facilities every day, we can do everything we can to save as many of the other several hundred thousand folks whose lives are associated with longterm care facilities between president s and residents and patients. That is an all in effort. The number of patients reported in either critical or intensive care so to 1061. Ventilator use continues its decline. There were 182 as asians yesterday. There were more than twice the number of live discharges with 380 patients leaving. Here are the admittance and discharge numbers broken down by region. On that for a moment. While we have said and we know the Northern Counties were blown away by this first, and this has migrated, the fact of the matter is we are not out of the woods. You have got over 100 new hospitalizations in the north alone. This is something that i know. This is something we all watch carefully. Today we must report with great 115 fatalities from covid19 related complications and our statewide 10,249 precious lives lost. That is a big number, but we cannot ever let those lost ever become a statistic. They were real people with families, incredible stories. Now they, their lives and stories are a part of our collective memory, not just that of their loved ones but all of ours. We must forget even one person. But remember a few of them right now. Lets begin with a guy who i have heard from all corners of ans state, and incredible incredible, true, American Hero right here he is with his wife and children. Born and raised in livingston, he joined the Police Department in 2000 and spent his entire uniformed career serving the people of the borough. He was the departments most senior patrol officer, respected and honored colleague and a beloved presence in the community. Officer,dare lead participated in the Special Olympics torch run and could be seen on his bike. He was the officer most likely to be seen working with and reading with kids are raising money for one worthy cause or another. One of the families he served was his own. The Roberts Family called glen ridge home. Because of his love of community and his residence in the community here and the title of the unofficial mayor of glen ridge. I spoke with the actual mayor stewart patrick, and he like everybody else in that town and in the state mourn the loss. He was laid to rest on thursday as Sergeant Roberts having been awarded the promotion for his two decades of service to glen ridge and he was just 45 years old. To his wife, an extraordinary educator with whom i have i had the great honor of Speaking Rock she was and remains, there felt children if you see the funeral procession pictures, gavin was carrying the flag laced with the irish colors. Gavin is 10. The daughter, shea, no secret that rob was a mets fan, so a lot of folks at the procession and drivethrough were wearing orange and blue. I hope they return robs memory with a decent baseball. And the daughter who was 12. To each of them words cannot express our sympathy. All of glen ridge and indeed our entire state shares in your loss. To you i was sergeant, bless you for your Selfless Service and your love of community and those blessed members of your family. Next we remember William Frank junior, a lifelong resident of South Plainfield in Middlesex County we lost at the age of 77. The only time he left South Plainfield was for the four years following his enlistment in the u. S. Air force and service during the vietnam war. Once back in his hometown, he joined the south langfield police and served his community for 20 years. Even then he kept working as a Security Guard for halls warehouse in South Plainfield. He loved spending his free time outside and making his yard the one that everyone was envious of especially at halloween where they would turn it into a graveyard scene. He had a deep love for animals. Besides his own dogs and cats, he found time to pick up donations for the humane society. Bill leaves his wife melissa, with whom i had the honor of speaking yesterday, his son and daughter and her husband and sister and extended family. He leaves behind many friends including my good friend pat cole again in the entire borough of South Plainfield to which he gave so much of his time and energy. Thank you for your service to our nation and to your community. Soul and your wife and kids and friends. Service to the Community Also she was with wanda as an administrative secretary for many years with gloucester county. There was nothing like helping people nearest her home. She was 86 years old and we lost her. Her family is saying goodbye to her as we sit here today. I promised her son we would get a livestream. Please make an honest man out of me. Her funeral began at 11 00 and i believe they are still together. She is being united with her late husband, brother and parents read im sure she is making up for the time lost. She is survived by her children. A bunch of grandchildren and greatgrandchildren. We send them our condolences and thanks to wanda for her years of service to the people of gloucester county. , wanda. S you three more names we will honor as we begin our restart. Three more reasons for us to continue practicing our social distancing even as we take the first steps towards our recovery. Lets keep at it for rob, bill and wanda and everyone we have lost it when you have see the when you see the flags flying, take a moment to remember why they are there and remember only you and fellow new jerseyans have the power to stop the spread. Lets switch gears for one of their announcement. May his Mental Health awareness month. The past two months have not just been a challenging time for all of us protecting our physical health, but they have also been hard on the Mental Health of many residents as well. I am proud to announce the new Jersey Department of Human Services has been awarded 2. 8 million in federal funding for servicesavioral health through this will help expand access to counseling and other support services for residents of every age. The department has launched the nj Mental Health care is line at 1866202 help. Need to connect with someone to discuss issues of anxiety or other challenges, dont hesitate or you we think our federal problem hesitate area we our usual note of optimism now. Over the past two months we have been amazed at the ways new jerseyans have been stepping up to support their communities from the frontline Public Health and safety euros to making sure friends and neighbors have what they need. I have to give a shout out to , aey or patty from hoboken chef and mother who is not letting this pandemic stop her from doing what she does best. She has been cooking up a storm as part of the Frontline Appreciation Group to help feed hobokens bravest and finest, delivering meals every tuesday to the Police Department and thursday to the fire department. Great job to everyone who has foundays in ways amazing ways to raise the spirits of our state. It is already going to be a beautiful weekend. Yesterday. Ce day if you are going out to our parks or elsewhere, practice social distancing. Please wear something covering your face. It is the only way we will see this through to the longterm. The more you read, the more you realize how important these are we take these off only to speak with you and put them back on when we leave and have them on when we come in. Today is armed forces day. Every new jersey and who has worn our nations uniforms and served the cause of our nation, thank you, we bless you for your service. Please help me welcome the woman who needs no inspection, judy percy kelly. Good afternoon. The labor commissioner and agricultural secretary and i and our teams have been working collaboratively are several weeks to assist the new jersey Farming Community as they open the fruit and vegetable growing season that has made new jersey renowned as the garden state. New jersey is famous for its cornty of crops, cranberries and the creativity of our farmers. Yesterday we hosted a call with 85 farm owners, growers, county health and agriculture officials, the Rutgers Cooperative extension service, state board of agriculture and health care officials, including our federally qualified health guidanceers to discuss you are providing to the farmers and growers on how to keep their seasonal farmworkers and the whole Farming Community safe during this growing season. As i said earlier, testing of our seasonal farmworkers in south jersey is already underway. 507ar we have tested individuals at 11 farms. Andave returned as positive are in isolation. This guidance will provide a framework for issues such as do social distancing while working for transportation to the worksite. Need tog workers on the wear masks at all times on the worksite, handwashing practices and cleaning and disinfecting and also screening workers prior to coming onto the worksite, testing and separating those workers with suspected or confirmed covid19 to avoid the spread of infection. Many in the Farming Community recognize the challenges such as social distancing while providing transportation to the workers. The administration is working to identify the availability of federal funding and alternative Housing Solutions for farms the need to supplement housing for social distancing purposes. The stakeholders on the call raise good and thoughtful issues and i want them to know that we hear you. We are working through the weekend to finalize our guidance and get it to the Agricultural Community as soon as possible. Agriculturalhe economy is vital in the state and defense on a strong workforce. As the growing season ramps up in new jersey, this collaborative effort is imperative to help protect the thousands of seasonal farmworkers and the Farming Community who are critical to sustaining that economy. Now for the daily report as the governor shared, our hospitals were at the lowest hospitalizations at 3564 of which a little over 1000 are in Critical Care. Of that number, 80 of those Critical Care individuals are on ventilators. The governor reviewed the new cases of deaths. The breakdowns in terms of ethnicity is the same. White 53. 5, black 18. 6, hispanic 3. 4. Asian 5. 5 and other there are no 528 longterm care facilities in the state reporting cases of covid19. Are 27,825 total covid19 cases in these facilities. At the states veteran homes there have been 378 residents that have tested positive and 140 resident deaths. The state Psychiatric Hospitals have remained the same. When you look at the spot Positivity Rate, new jersey overall has a rate of 22 . In the north it is 21 . Central is 21 and we see a pickup in the south. That concludes my statistical reports. Stay connected, safe and healthy. Thank you. You, and yourhank comments on the Agricultural Sector and economy are quite timely. The big counties continue to be the ones, you all know what they are, every county has positive tests and fatalities but the big six continue to be a big six. Any update on compliance, pp, other measures. Good morning. Our personnel canvas 135 different Law Enforcement agencies in the shore region. We are glad to report pretty low volume at this point including some pictures from siegert and belmar and those where there are folks gathering. They are keeping social distancing in mind area that was, i am glad to report that. With regards to the subject arrested for Domestic Violence, was charged with terroristic threats for coughing on the arresting officer, claiming to have covid19. In hoboken the subject was charged with criminal mischief for disparaging racial comments on the sidewalk in front of the apartment complex. In jersey city the subject arrested as a suspect in three armed robberies spit in the arresting officers face claiming to have covid19. And on the way here and i know every day and day out you have to sit here and report those to 2000 iay, up thought i would offer a small piece of hope. On my way here, i was advised aross country crosscountry husband and wife team, she was giving birth and pulled over on the turner pike the turnpike and called for hope call for help. Troopers arrived and delivered a healthy baby girl with the help of munro township ems. I offer that up for the folks that have some of that we hear about the tragic deaths, which they are, but i was glad to report something good. Gov. Murphy that is a great story. They are from where . Memphis. This child, baby girl. Gov. Murphy welcome to new jersey. We will start over here. Just to say, correct me if i am wrong, tomorrow will be. Lectronic only electronic only of the monday, the usual time . 1 00. There is a white house vtc scheduled for Late Afternoon on monday. So with that if things change, we will come back to you. Good afternoon. You say beaches will remain open but stay at home continues. Some say it is confusing. Nonessential businesses are open for curbside but daycare is closed. What is the latest on daycare. Can workers for the businesses use daycare . Will you sign the bills get workers emergency aid . Our Tennis Courts allowed to be opened . Is there any sense how much longer the stayathome order will remain in effect . Or you still dont know based on the numbers . Gov. Murphy bear with me. Any as i have said over the past number of days, we are taking deliberately incremental steps and trying to avoid particularly connected large steps taken together. The data is driving us on this. That is why you would not have seen state parks and beaches opening in the same weekend. We want to assess the impact of our steps and get our enforcement right, tweak it where we have to so we learned one lesson and they are not all open, but we need to get restrooms and parks open. We had some unintended consequences. I believe your wallet i have fallen out of your back market. Your back market back pocket. Through actions we take essentially, we are going to chip away at the blanket stayathome reality. That sort of speaks for itself. Nothing new on daycare, something we constantly monitor. It is where it is. We are looking on the furlough bill, we have been open to the notion or the devil is in the details and we are reviewing that as we do anything that comes across our desk. I want to repeat something, i people,ow that duties people in the department of labor to be working any harder. This is a moment when we need government unlike anytime before you that is important and i want to keep making. Nothing new on tennis, but that is something we are monitoring. How much longer . Either monday or tuesday i will give you more detail how we are seeing this, not with the dates, but you have asked exactly what marker should we be expecting you to look at to trigger some actions. We want to give folks more detail on that. That is in place. The stayathome continues to be in place. You should assume executive orders that go towards opening are removing bricks from that. I hope this does not happen, this will bring us no joy, but we reserve the right to reverse the car if we think we have got unintended bad Health Consequences from steps we have taken. I started today in asbury park on the boardwalk, the open boardwalk. I got a little bit of everything. I got people, whose right do they have to tell me to wear a mask, got people that were glad there was lots of police to make sure they were wearing masks. The police are in a tough spot. How do you are we ready for people dealing with all of these tensions and things going on . People are getting anxious. Understand that. Believe me. We are going through something similar together. We set this the other day. You should weigh in. When i speak to the shore mayors, and john was on the call and did a great job in asbury the, but they have raised fact that because it is on unusual appetite to get to the beach, to get outside and they recognize that and so do we. We have conversations about how do you do this in a way where we are enforcing, that we are not putting Law Enforcement or other folks into harms way . I read an article about it worker who isil checking people to make sure they are masked coming in. That person was taking some grief, unacceptable grief. It is a similar, you have got an unusual circumstance, physical locations over the past couple of months tied to home in most cases and now you have got Mental Health challenges and natural human nature, i am dying to get out. We have got to be very careful. If you are trying to get your unemployment insurance, get to the beach, get to a park, essential retail, we have got to be mindful of each other. This is something we have never gone through and we got to make sure we get the best behavior possible. We have got to make sure it stays that way. Our training consists of deescalation techniques, whether it is a group of people directed towards Law Enforcement or Law Enforcement trying to break up altercations. I can only ask for people to have patience with one another and Law Enforcement as we try and work through this obviously unprecedented challenges that are facing each and every one of us as they go out and try to make sure people remain safe. Not theiry it is fault. They are doing what we are asking them to do to help us enforce. We will go to the back and then join you. I have three questions if that is ok. Gov. Murphy depends on what the questions are. The first is based on what President Trump has asked all times, if somebody needs a test, can they get a test this is based on me visiting multiple test sites the past few days per he has been asked a few times, because the staff can get a test every day, should everybody when will everybody be able to get one on a daily basis before getting back to work . Tam,cond question for dr. On the science on gov. Murphy i could have sworn that was your second question. Can you update us on what you have learned, whether it is alive or not and how it works . Have you been dealing with forensic anthologist path allergists as part of this. And my question for colonel callahan, any statistics you can offer yearoveryear, significant changes because of inactivity and people not working . Gov. Murphy our staff doesnt get tested. You mean the white house staff . Because the white house staff gets tested every day, why shouldnt americans . Gov. Murphy i cant speak for the president or the white house crew we have rolled out what is a pretty clear 20,000 tests per day by the end of this month which is basically two weeks from now. That is where we will be great we have said 20,000 tests by the end of june. We believe that is enough to address the tears of our major concerns. Number one, vulnerable communities, longterm care, frontline workers, health care workers, First Responders and third the general public. People have said your testing has gone down the past couple of weeks. Testing capacity has gone up almost every day. Dont confuse demand with supply. I had this conversation with my family. There is a rite aid in neptune which has capacity right now. If you want to get a test, dont want to send the whole state but that is a reality. Demand is down and we have discussed this a lot. You have got infected people numbers down, hospitalization numbers are down. It is an impact not for the reality of the bug but for human nature as well. We have a testing plan in place we are confident is sufficient most importantly to allow folks the confidence they can get engaged in society as we open it up. You want to know and i dont flareupu, if there is a , we have got sufficient testing to spot it, that the return is rapid, that we have Contact Tracing in place to figure out who you came in touch with and we have a plan to isolate you. Folks need to know that so they can get back to do the things they are allowed to do. Broadas a fairly question, what have we learned about the virus . We could be here all week, but any thoughts you have . Learning a have been lot about the virus these last several months and every day we add to the body of knowledge. What we have learned for example is that the scope of illness really has taken a variety of forms. We have learned about new symptoms that might be associated with a Novel Coronavirus disease decide aside from the new presentation. We have heard about people with lossal symptoms including of smell and taste very we have been learning about syndromes that might be associated with pediatric populations like the multisystem inflammatory syndrome we are just getting to learn about and how severe illness can impact individuals of any age group. We have learned about where disease transmission works. There have been a lot of literature published by the cdc that are describing it is confirming our knowledge that close congregant settings, close family gatherings, social gatherings really help promote spread and transmission of covid19 illness among populations, on top of characterizing occupational exposures in Meat Processing plants. Every day we are learning more , whether it is characterization of the illness, the scope and well as transmission aspects. We are fortunate we have got researchers that are looking at the various therapeutics. There are a lot of efforts related to Vaccine Development and other Therapeutic Development as well. Gov. Murphy the more i read, the smaller smarter it is to wear a face covering. That is something we have all learned. I say this as a layperson. Yearoveryear crime . Crime is down across the board throughout the entire state. Rrests are down 65 Domestic Violence is down 16 . As i know the commissioner would want me to say, we know about the underreporting of Domestic Abuse and child neglect. Hootings are down 19 the one category that is concerned as of today, shooting murders are up 9 compared to last year at this same time. Generally all trending down with the exception of homicides from firearms. Gov. Murphy any reason why they might be up . Sometimes it is the victim versus where the bullet lands. Victims are down to 19 but murders are up. If the amount of shootings are down and victims are up, it points to where they are being struck in the fact they end up being fatal. Gov. Murphy thank you. Good afternoon. Good afternoon, hope you are well. I know you have gotten to know the president pretty well. You said he said you are a good governor. Do you say he is a good president . What are your differences . If you are trying to make it as easy as possible for folks to vote by mail, why would new why would you not send ballots to unaffiliated voters, and he will make the decision on where polling places will be . Make thell you decision on where polling places will be . Is a true your education commissioner will remain in that office until that july 1 . I appreciate the fact the president said that. I dont know enough to analyze the operations from wind within their administration. I suspect they would say the same of getting inside hours getting inside ours. We have found Common Ground in the crisis we are from different parties. It is obvious to say we will have disagreements on other stuff. We have found an unusual amount of Common Ground. Transit. Billion for nj even the conversation i had a couple of weeks ago in the white house about state aid and the reasons for it and the net the rationale and judy was by my side, debunking whether this was a legacy notion. We are aaa bond traded state 30 years ago. It has been a series of steps, but i got elected to address that. We were making progress. Even where there is not a natural agreement and starting point, that doesnt mean the list of things we disagree on has gotten shorter. During this crisis to him and his team and the Vice President we have found Common Ground on ventilators, beds, testing, and army corps, not just testing in fema sites but testing swabs and kits. We have got a Good Relationship with members of the team. Ncluding dr. Birx good to have you. I will give you mine two answers. The reason is for on affiliates, they need to make a conscious decision which party they are going to participate in. Are they going to vote and which party will they participate with in a primary . If you are a democrat, you are a democrat. Republican, you are republican. For unaffiliated you have got to make a conscious decision. Polling places are up to the clerks in the countys prewe have said two things. Each musicality needs one polling place and there needs to polling place relative to normal. In person, it is a great question. I have three kids in college. This is a hot topic including at home. I dont have an answer for you yet area this is something we are trying to get our arms around. You have started to see certain universities during the towel in and say we will be virtual for the fall. The university of california system and stanford have said this. In some cases it is up to the universities. A private University Like princeton, that is their call. Rutgers and the others, it will be a decision we make collectively. Lamont, i want to congratulate him, salute his work as commissioner of education. I speak for pat and judy, we will miss him enormously. He has done great work including in this crisis. Matt was on with him last night talking about other decision points. He is locked in and i give him credit for that. We tip our cap. It is a richly deserved acknowledgment. I dont know i have a date. I dont know we have got one yet. We will come back to you on that area there may be one date i am not aware of area thank you for that. You will take us out. Crystal from planet princeton. Something was said yesterday that made it sound like data on confirmed cases includes staff at the facilities, does it or does it gov. Murphy it does include staff. Does that include the individual pdf spreadsheets . Gov. Murphy i cant speak to that. The numbers do include both residents and staff. Trend with Psychiatric Hospitals, so many people testingpositive, how is being managed . And any figures on how people have donated plasma . Gov. Murphy you have been unusually quiet in terms of the questions directed at you which i know you are upset about. Any color at the Psychiatric Hospital and i dont have plasma donation numbers or perhaps you all do. We can come back to you. Trenton Psychiatric Hospital you want to know the number of employees that tested positive . How they backfill . My understanding is they have not have staffing issues. I am making assumptions assumption they have been able to backfill. For those that are not filling feeling well or are in isolation, dont have anywhere. Just dont have any report. I dont have any statistics on asthma. It is going on. Gov. Murphy we find out through university, red cross judy it is happening. All the major hospitals are doing it. Good . Rphy you with that i will ask up mask up. Thank you to judy and christina, pat, jerry, matt, the rest of the team. I told pat i found my state police. I need to cover my eyes. I am of the opinion and i dont hear anyone disagreeing that ace coverings are a game changer. It is not in lieu of social distancing. It is in addition to it. The more research you read, the more evidence you see it is a game changer. So to judy, christina, the rest of the team, thank you to each and every one of you. We will be electronic tomorrow unless you hear otherwise. We will be together at 1 00 on monday. And keep it up a we are taking now a member of steps areas some of these are big ones. Be patient with each other and those were trying their best to enforce some of the steps we are taking especially at beaches and parks. Know that as the data continues to get better, we are under consideration now and we will take more steps. I want to thank everybody for extraordinary behavior over the past couple of months and we need you to keep at it. And we could break the back of this, reopen responsibly and put this chapter, we will learn andons we will never forget put this behind us. Thank you.
