New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy issues stay-at-home order for nearly all of state's 9M residents

“We must flatten the curve and ensure residents are practicing social distancing," the governor said in announcing the sweeping mandate.

The governor of New Jersey on Saturday issued a stay-at-home order for nearly all of the state's 9 million residents in the fight against the spread of the coronavirus.

Similar sweeping mandates have been made in California, Illinois, New York and Pennsylvania.

“We must flatten the curve and ensure residents are practicing social distancing," New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy said in announcing the new restrictions. But, he added, “Even with this order in effect … life in New Jersey does not have to come to a complete standstill.”

The governor told residents not to panic, but, he said, "We're at war."

NJ beaches really suck. I would not worry a bout closing them and it has been this way for years.

It's a local problem.
