Str went down a number?
Doesn’t Lakewood’s numbers look good
Are Lakewood’s numbers getting diverted to brick or is it because those dirty cockroaches come to stores in brick and spread it
Ryan Hatch or maybe the people in brick are spreading it to the other people in brick?????
Kristin really? There is a reason why every town surrounding Lakewood is so high
They also are doing private testing with the 3.5 million they got from the state, do you really think they are reporting those numbers?
Nice language
Judith Ann Romero what language?
The word cockroach offends thee??
Is there any good News how many people survive Are doing well
Spread some good news retired of these inflated numbers
With an estimated 607,000 residents in Ocean County, NJ there are a total of 304 deaths thus far. 40% of those are nurseing homes and 75% ( including nurseing homes) are people over the age of 65. If there are 304 deaths out of approx. 607,000 residents that means that 0.050% of county residents have died from the virus. In other words 99.95% have not died. There is no reason for any of this lockdown stuff. Statistically speaking, people have a better chance of being killed getting in an accident driving to the corner Wawa then dying from Covid 19. It’s time to open everything back up now. If your scared of contracting Covid 19, or are in the most at risk populations, then stay home and self quatentine. I think many people are willing to assume the minuscule amount of risk in order to have their normal everyday lives back. I know I am.
Ben Davis Where did you learn your math skills. First of all, you should be comparing the amount of people reported to have the virus with the total deaths attributed to the virus. Secondly, we don’t know how many people died at home self medicating Covid19.
Stop your whining and take your direction from health professionals!
Well if 5590 people are infected in Ocean County and 304 have died “officially” from Covid 19 than that makes a death rate of 5.43% of infected people. It should be worth pointing out that of those 304 people, the majority are over age 65 or are in nurseing homes. Why should we keep altering the lives of the other 99 percent of people for a fragile few? That’s ridiculous. And if you figure that 75% of the cases are over age 65 than the other 25% I would assume are younger. If that’s the case than other people, even if infected only have a 1.35% chance of dying. 76 / 5590 = 1.35%. Botton line: This is an overblown crisis and the chances of dying from this are slim to none.
Ben Davis yea cause after two weeks of being able to test we started staying home!!! What do you think the numbers would be if we all just went about our business.
I’ll just leave this here. Oh and I agree with you putting “Officially” in parentheses Ben!! I for one do not like my civil liberties being stripped over media hysteria. Strange how the amount of deaths this season due to influenza jas dropped drastically too. Follow the money!!
Ben Davis where are you getting your numbers from that 40% and 75% are from nursing homes or over 65? I have not seen this official report and the nj daily briefing the numbers are not even close to what you just stated
Ben’s last name is really “Dover”
Ocean Medical Center
Community Medical Center
Don”t have Southern Ocean (Kimble). But these numbers are from the start. Most people are sent home and Quarantined because they do not require immediate medical assistance…
Jim Jamieson all that post is showing is the new code for covid19 which happens whenever something comes up that is not already coded. then it explains to coders how to code according to what the physicians use as cause of death. thats why its a public knowledge. nothing to see ????♀️
Ben Davis totally right
Ben Davis I agree ????. Have been saying the same.
People are only looking at the number which is not accurate and not comparing to the number
Of people. This number is with NJ not enforcing a strict lockdown until the last couple of weeks.
Besides, why quarantine since they came out with fantastic, “the best”, amazing treatments and cures? There’s hydoxychloraquine, uv light and injectable disinfectant!
Ben is right. Everytime they post these numbers, I say the same thing. Even worldwide deaths do not equal the population of ocean county. And since OC and most of new Jersey is democrat run, let’s look at what New York is doing as far as counting deaths. The numbers are wrong. We have more deaths related to drug use than to this bullshit pandemic. As far the numbers hes posting, its public info. Stop asking posters to verify numbers. Go research it yourself. And anyone who really thinks that injecting Clorox into your system is the key, by all means do it. I believe in Darwinism.
Ben Davis then you shouldn’t be worried about getting sick then . Go help out the hospitals and morgues
Annette Crawford Hall people like you are the exact people that should get this virus. The useless whiny ones. Not our nurses and doctors, police and firemen that are all dying , but you , it should be you
Betty Wallace what a lovely thing for you to say. If someone disagrees with you then you wish death on them.
I supposed that makes you feel all righteous and holier than thou but it doesn’t it makes you a bitter
Close minded ass
Ben Davis
Your math assumes everyone has been infected already
Jim Jamieson dude I was ripped apart on Murphy’s page for complaining about Murphy and the bill of rights. People called me a c@“$. Told me to drink bleach n die. So nice to hear you say wat u said. I am with you ! Not to mention Lakewood is more then half our problem! Stay safe!
Ben Davis while could it be that there aren’t more deaths because we have been quarantined and social distancing for weeks now. You can see the ones getting the virus are the ones not following the guidelines.
The facts General Secretary Murphy is leaving out in his statistics:
21% of people being tested actually test positive. That means 79% of folks with symptoms are actually negative.
You can have it, or have had it and have no symptoms. If you don’t have symptoms, you aren’t going to get a test.
Since only roughly 179,000 people have been tested, that is .02% of the population of NJ.
If you expand that outside of NJ, a lot of areas have tested even less people.
From a purely academic standpoint (nothing political), the reality of it is that such a small percentage of people have been tested, there can be no accurate data
Ben Davis omg I agree ????????
Ben Davis all of you that agree haven’t had to work in a hospital, nursing home, jail, etc where you could possibly and more than likely will bring the virus home to your family or you yourself be infected!!! It’s not fun!! Trust me!! Regardless of it being elderly passing away these are people’s family and we are working our asses off to make sure they are comfortable while they are dying on top of being short staffed and not getting the full time to recover from this awful virus!! People like you make me not want to donate my plasma to help the future of this virus!! Smh! Stay inside and let the proper testing be done so you won’t have to suffer from this!!
Ben, go shopping in Lakewood then
If the odds are so low on getting real sick or dying, why play the lottery.
I’m supposed go play the odds so you can buy new sneakers?
Selfish i say selfish
Sean Plummer
