Variation in the numbers reflect a change in coding methodology. Until yesterday, Burlington County Health Department was previously using ZIP to categorize numbers. Burlington County now uses GIS (district numbers used by Central Communication) to ensure accuracy.

CONTACT TRACING CLARIFICATION

Burlington County is actively engaged in contact tracing positive COVID19 cases. The focus is on close contacts, defined as closer than 6 feet for more than 10 minutes, household contacts and those that work in high risk settings such as healthcare workers and long term care facilities. If community exposure has occurred, where a COVID-19 positive person was in close contact with people for an extended period of time, while symptomatic, we will notify the public. Since residents are abiding by the social distancing requirements, we have not run into that issue since our first releases. Reminder: Mass exposure, due to social distancing guidelines, and the cooperation of the public has been minimized. Residents are reminded to remain 6 feet apart while obtaining essential items or services, and stay home unless absolutely necessary.

Burlington County is accepting PPE donations from residents and businesses to assist our efforts in combatting COVID19. Donations are accepted 7 days a week at 60 Academy Drive in Westampton, NJ, 08060.
