“This disease preys on the most vulnerable among us worst of all, and the results are nothing short of tragic,” said Mayor Nicholas Sacco. “Our Health Department is working with these facilities to put as many safeguards in place as possible, such as isolating residents and not allowing visitors to enter. I ask all of North Bergen to join me in mourning these men and women and praying for them and their families during this difficult time, as well as all other victims of this pandemic in our community and throughout the country and the world.”
The Township of North Bergen has taken numerous actions at the direction of public health officials to limit the spread of Coronavirus, all of which are accessible on the township website’s dedicated Coronavirus Updates page. Residents are encouraged to follow the township’s social media pages, which are available in both English and Spanish and are updated multiple times per day with new information.
