Three new COVID-19 cases in Haddonfield

The Camden County Department of Health reported yesterday that three Haddonfield residents have tested positive for the novel coronavirus, COVID-19: a male in his 10s, a male in his 20s, and a male in his 30s. This brings the total number of confirmed cases locally to 92, with seven fatalities.

In Camden County, the total number of cases stands at 9,836, with 564 deaths. For New Jersey, 192,595 cases with 14,181 confirmed deaths and an additional 1,783 probable deaths.

The transmission rate — a key metric — rose yesterday to 0.96, up from 0.92 on Tuesday. (A transmission rate of 1.0 means that, on average, each new case will produce one additional new case. When the transmission rate falls below 1,0, it’s a good sign. When it rises above 1.0, it’s cause for concern.)
