New Jersey residents are waking up Sunday to significantly tighter restrictions as officials try to slow the spread of the coronavirus - all non-essential retail businesses in the state are closed and residents are asked not to leave their homes unless absolutely necessary.

Gov. Phil Murphy announced Saturday that the number of cases in New Jersey has grown to 1,327 with 442 additional positive tests and 16 total deaths. It’s unclear how many people have recovered or are experiencing only mild symptoms. In the previous 10 days, New Jersey had gone from 29 confirmed cases to 1,327. The average day-over-day increase has been 51%. Some of that increase is likely due to increased testing.

For several days, non-essential businesses had been allowed to remain open until 8 p.m. Murphy also strongly suggested early last week people stay off the roads between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m.

But under the stricter rules now in effect, all non-essential businesses in New Jersey had to be closed until further notice by 9 p.m. Saturday and there should be no travel except for people who have jobs deemed essential, to purchase food or for medical purposes.

The essential businesses that remain open include grocery stores, food banks, pharmacies, gas stations, auto mechanics, convenience stores, banks, hardware stores, laundromats, office supply shops, pet stores, stores that sell supplies for young children and mail and delivering shops. Liquor stores have also been deemed essential.

Libraries around the state were also ordered closed on Saturday. Murphy had previously ordered the closure of indoor malls, movie theaters, casinos, gyms, amusement parks, barber shops and more.

Restaurants and bars that provide takeout can remain open. Construction sites will not be closed, and manufacturers, ports and logistics operations can continue operating with staff at minimal levels.
