Governor Phil Murphy on Saturday said New Jersey has 19 new cases of COVID-19, bringing the state’s total official number to 69.

“We are more than pleased of the House’s federal response bill and the president’s support for it,” said Murphy, noting allocations in the bill for SNAP, the School Lunch, Paid Leave, and other programs.

The governor urged the U.S. Senate to pass the $50 billion bipartisan legislative package, passed by the U.S. House of Representaives in response to the spread of coronavirus in the early hours of Saturday morning following negotiations between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the Trump administration.

On today’s conference call, Murphy said had a short conversation last night with Vice President Mike Pence.

“We have a lot more that we need,” he told reporters on a conference call, referencing a truckload from the feds of personal protective equipment.

Judith Persichilli, commissioner of the Department of Health, said people should not seek testing if they do not have symptoms.

“We have been prioritizing testing for our most vulnerable residents,” Persichilli said.

She dived into the 19 new positive cases.

Thirteen females and six male, aged 18 to 80.
