6th Most Watched Covid Video...Beach And Boardwalk Covid-19 Safety Tips. (2,775 video views), Story Date: July 22, 2020.

The current state of the Covid-19 pandemic as it relates to Ocean County as of July 22 was in a positive trend with a consistent amount of less and less cases being reported on a daily and weekly basis by the Ocean County Health Department.

That's no reason to be complacent for residents in Ocean County or anyone visiting the area.

"We're encouraging residents and visitors to come out and enjoy the outdoors because it's good for their physical, mental and social well-being but if they're going to be coming out, do it responsibly," Ocean County Public Health Coordinator Dan Regenye told 92.7 WOBM News. "If you're in an outdoor environment like the beach, be able to have your socially distancing and be at least 6-feet apart. If you're then going to be coming up onto the boardwalk and using some of the restroom facilities or even some of the food establishments, make sure that you're bringing a mask and covering up."

When you're at the beach and boardwalk, wearing a mask could not only help you but help others around you at that time and when you go home.

"It's good for the individual whether they're a positive case or not," Regenye said. "It (wearing a mask) would help them either way, from spreading it or contracting it. Everybody needs to do their part and take those precautions to protect themselves, their families and more importantly everybody knows somebody who meets the high risk definition whether by age or bay some kind of an underlying health condition. Those are the individuals that we really need to protect and not be so selfish is saying 'Oh, I'm not going to wear this because I'm fine'. It's not about you as a person, it's about the community that we reside in and the people around us that may look perfectly healthy but they may have some kind of underlying health condition."

If that means sacrificing your face tan on the beach and boardwalk, then you'll have to take one for the team and put on a face mask.
