State health officials reported 22 new confirmed deaths and 424 new cases, though a reporting issue with Quest labs tests that was disclosed on Monday continues to affect the state’s numbers, Gov. Phil Murphy said.
“We continue to work on the issue related to reporting from one of our private labs,” Murphy said while reporting the new numbers on Twitter. “Some reports are being received, but there is still a backlog waiting to be processed.”
State health officials estimated the backlog at 15,000 tests on Monday, but no update was provided on that number Tuesday. Murphy did not hold an in-person briefing Tuesday.
