COVID-19 Update – December 23rd, 2021 (Thursday)

Posting an update after a three-week gap since our health officer was away on a well-deserved break. After consultation with her, we have decided to change the format and report number of cases during the past two weeks and drop the cumulative total. You can also follow the COVID-19 Activity level Index (CALI) published by the state for each county. Currently the level of index for Mercer County is high.

During the past 14-day period West Windsor had 163 new cases of COVID-19. This is higher than previous reports but keeping with increase in cases in Mercer County and the state. The silver lining is that compared to other towns in the county we have lower number of cases as a percentage of our population. We have also not seen an increase in severity of reported cases. Each school in the district is reporting at least a case. For every case in school, you are getting an update directly from the superintendent if you have a student at that school. The health department is working closely with the school district.

COVID-19 Cases Reported in West Windsor Residents during Dec 10 to 23 – 163
