The discussion came as cases have begun a slight tick upward, according to Camden County Commissioner Jonathan Young, who moderated the event. “We are seeing more cases each day than we were a month ago,” Young said. As of Thursday, there have been 56,208 COVID-19 cases in the county, according to New Jersey data. Young said that the rate of transmission has reached approximately 1.2 — for every COVID case, at least one other person is getting infected with the virus.
