MESSAGE FROM GOVERNOR MURPHY:"This is a war. This is the fight of our lives. Wars are not won with one person or one small group, they're won when millions of people come together in a common cause.  Our cause right now is totally flattening the curve and then seeing it drop down the other side,” said Governor Murphy.  “As we see the daily overall number of overall positive test results rise, we should also keep in mind that every day there are hundreds, if not thousands, of residents who had received a prior positive test result, who have now likely defeated the virus.”
