First Lady Tammy Murphy today tested positive for COVID-19 on a rapid antigen test. She is asymptomatic. Governor Murphy and the rest of the family have tested negative, and they will continue to test regularly in the coming days.
The Governor and First Lady tested themselves due to a recent known non-family contact in their home. Required procedures for reporting, case investigation, and contact tracing have been followed.
Tomorrow’s regularly scheduled COVID-19 briefing will shift to a virtual format and stream online. As the Governor is vaccinated and boosted, he is not required to quarantine per CDC guidance. He will continue to wear a mask in all public settings.
Both the Governor and First Lady are vaccinated and boosted, and have exercised caution whenever possible, including double masking. They urge all New Jerseyans to get vaccinated, get boosted, wear a mask, and keep themselves and their loved ones safe.
OMG!!!! This is major news!!!!!! Call in the guards
Well, she was vaccinated and got covid. but her hubby doesn’t need to stay home even though his own proven experience is that the vaccine (three of them) doesn’t work.
Now he’s going to go out and spread covid just like he made the seniors do in the nursing homes.
oh wait…
We paid 50 million for that, not him… stupid me.
and one last thing…
make sure to get the vaccine… and the booster.. just like tammy did!
Yawn!
While we all wish the governor and his family well, Why is this newsworthy?
May she have a speedy recovery!
How can she have a recovery if she isnt sick? who made up that you can be sick if you dont have any sick symptoms? This is the first time in history that such an idea has received acceptance by medical authorities. This is all assuming that the tests are accurate, although they are already being seriously contested in the courts for being set too high so as to report way too many positives. We are living the past two years through the curse of the tochacha “Vnastem m’kol aleh nidaf v’ein rodef eschem”.
Who. Cares.
She and the rest of the world.
When will people finally realize you don’t have to get worked up with this omricon variant.
ITS A COLD!!!
Not just that, but maybe everyone will finally get natural immunity which will help with herd immunity.
If she was vaccinated how did she get covid?
Just because you are vaccinated doesn’t mean are protected. Each strain is different, and if you were vaccinated its the original strain of the flu virus no one of the 26 strains that are coming out. This virus mutates daily
I can’t believe we’re two years into this pandemic and you still need to explain this to people
News FLASH. You can still get Covid even when you have been vaccinated. The vaccine for the most part will prevent you from being seriously ill. However you can still spread the virus to others while you have it. Please use your mask when indoors around others to prevent the spread.
