JUST TO CLARIFY this does NOT include most of the bordering states of New Jersey, New York and Connecticut. For the most part Northeast America is in good shape and have low cases of Covid-19. So as an example, someone from Maine, Vermont, Pennsylvania, New York, New Hampshire…. can visit the Wildwoods with NO quarantine.
This advisory also applies to everyone, including New Jerseyans returning home from these states.
So as a recap:
-
If you live in a boarding state, unless you are from Delaware and want to come to Wildwood, you do NOT need to quarantine.
-
If you are visiting from one of those nine states you MUST quarantine
-
If you are returning from one of these states back home to New Jersey, you MUST quarantine.
