Many NJ Hospitals Reinstating Masking Requirements in Anticipation of Increased Respiratory Illness

Hospitals across New Jersey have reinstated masking requirements in anticipation of the seasonal uptick in respiratory infections.

At the hospitals within the Hackensack Meridian system, those visiting inpatients are being asked to mask up at least until the end of January.
At the 14 medical centers within the RWJ/Barnabas system, the requirement goes even farther, extending also to medical staff when caring for patients.
State health data shows small upticks in ER visits by those with COVID and RSV, but a spike in flu cases that rivals the numbers seen last year at this time.
