The vaccine will be a large step forward to mitigate the current crisis, but we still need to wear our masks, wash out hands and be socially distant.”
Eric Sztejman, MD, ICU medical director

“The coronavirus vaccine has proven to be very effective. However, we need an aggressive campaign to immunize the public and to educate everyone about the importance of getting vaccinated.

Gov. Phil Murphy signed a new executive order stating that all New Jersey residents who choose to receive the COVID-19 vaccine will be enrolled into New Jersey’s vaccine registry. The registry currently allows all residents born before Jan. 1, 1998 to opt into the program, and residents born after this date are automatically enrolled. However, regardless of birth date, any individual who receives the COVID-19 vaccine will be enrolled in the registry automatically. Individuals will be allowed to opt out of the registry 30 days after the expiration of the public health emergency.
