NEW EXECUTIVE ORDER No. 109
Governor Phil Murphy today announced a new state website for reporting personal protective equipment (PPE). In accordance with Executive Order No. 109, any business, non-hospital health care facility, or institution of higher learning in possession of PPE, ventilators, respirators, or anesthesia machines must submit that information to the State by 5:00 p.m. on Friday, March 27. The website created today also gives these entities the ability to donate PPE.
“We have a critical need in New Jersey for personal protective equipment,” said Governor Murphy. “Our hospitals, health care workers, and first responders on the front lines of the fight against COVID-19 can only be successful with access to these essential supplies.”
To submit information related to PPE, please visit https://covid19.nj.gov/ppereport.
