New Jersey had another big jump. Even without Ocean County, which had 1,130 cases, the numbers were the highest since early June. The curve is looking like it did in March but, at least so far, I haven't heard anything from Trenton about rolling back things.

Bergen County is up as well. I think Murphy needs to consider doing something. What a lousy birthday present.

The virus is apparently racing through Trump's Chumps like wildfire. The White House is becoming something of a hotspot. Even Chris Christie has tested positive. Ah well, that's just another piece of chaos in this year of chaos.
