After big COVID-19 masking announcements in New Jersey and Delaware on Monday, the one place in the greater Philadelphia region where indoor masking has yet to get an end date is in the city of Philadelphia.
The New Jersey Education Association -- with which Murphy is closely allied -- issued a statement endorsing the move, saying they were"cautiously optimistic" it was safe if trends continued.and extended a number of executive orders that included the school and daycares mask mandate.
But Murphy told the New York Times in a Sunday interview that masks were never meant to be permanent, and that the change was timed for warmer weather, which would give schools more ventilation options. New Jersey was hit badly by the omicron variant, consistently reporting more than 20,000 new infections a day for a large part of January. But just as quickly as the wave rose, it fell.
On Sunday the state recorded just 1,625 new COVID-19 cases, down 95% in a month and back to the levels usually seen before omicron arrived.“We’re in a much better place than we were several weeks ago in the middle of the Omicron surge of COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations,” said Carney said in a news release."I want to be clear about this point - COVID is still circulating in our communities, Carney said.
