Twelve new coronavirus cases in Bucks County, Pennsylvania are being traced back to a New Jersey resident who attended a number of beach house gatherings at the Jersey Shore in the past two weeks.

 

In a statement from the Bucks County Health Department, they say, "This is exactly why we can't let our guard down now, even if it feels `safe' to be at the beach. One unlucky exposure can lead to a large cascade of cases down the line. We want everyone to enjoy the warmer weather and have fun, but let's keep in mind that COVID is still circulating in the community at baseline levels."
