Paramus NJ, In May, the County of Bergen and Bergen New Bridge Medical Center launched an innovative testing initiative bringing COVID-19 saliva testing and antibody testing directly into local communities throughout the county. Through the initiative, nearly 35,000 tests were administered, 25,311 of which were diagnostic and 9,123 antibody. An estimated combined 22,500 staff and volunteer hours were dedicated to support all aspects of the mobile testing to stop the spread. The Community COVID-19 Mobile Testing Program has paused operations for the summer and will ramp up again in early September.
