Borough Of Fanwood: Fanwood COVID Update: 2 Years Later

Press release from the Borough of Fanwood :

March 11th, 2022

As of March 11, 2022

The decline in COVID-19 cases has been evident in New Jersey, manifested in the relaxation of mask mandates. Masks are now optional in SPF public schools and in Fanwood’s Borough Hall. Many businesses no longer require them. However, the pandemic has not yet been officially downgraded to an endemic condition, so vaccinations and boosters are still on the agenda for those who haven’t gotten them, especially those in high-risk categories.

The New Jersey Department of Health is no longer providing weekly stats. However, their  COVID Dashboard is available anytime for the big picture.

Testing

The federal government is making ADDITIONAL free home testing kits available to all Americans. You can get up to four more per address by going to covidtests.gov.

Union County continues offering free testing at locations across the county. More info here.

Home testing kits are also available at local drug stores.

Vaccine Clinics

Vaccines and boosters are still seen as the best defense against COVID. Union County offers free vaccines and boosters. Sign up online at https://ucnj.org/covid19/, which is also a good overall resource for County COVID resources.

Masks are now optional in Fanwood Borough Hall.
