A News12 report claims many North Jersey residents living in areas with higher concentrations of the Coronavirus are flocking to their Jersey Shore summer homes to try to escape the growing pandemic.
According to the article, Cape May County Freeholder Director Gerald M. Thornton said, “We are hoping that people act responsibly now so we can minimize the health impacts in as short of a period of time as possible. It would be best if people could stay in their full-time residence for now as we address this current outbreak.”
