Ridgewood NJ, I read with rising dismay some of the comments concerning my recent posting about Saurabh Dani, a candidate for the Ridgewood Board of Education, and an attempt force the taxpayers to finance his crusade to uncover nothing.

Large public gathering areas, such as stadiums and arenas, will need to be disinfected on a regular basis for the public to feel comfortable attending events again. Common methods of disinfection, including using crews of people to clean and disinfect areas by hand, are time consuming and too costly to scale across large areas.

TRENTON NJ, Early last month, Governor Phil Murphy signed legislation into law providing healthcare workers civil and criminal immunity from liability for certain malpractice lawsuits that allege injury or death incurred during the public health emergency.
