Compared to the same day last week, the number of Coronavirus cases in Secaucus went up from 351 to 436. That's an increase of 24.2%. Although that is a slight drop compared to the previous week's 29.0%, it is still high compared to the rest of the state. On a much more uplifting note, though, the number of COVID-19 related deaths only went up by 17.6% this week. While that may sound high, it is actually a huge improvement compared to the previous week's 88.9%. This is an encouraging sign that the worst may be behind us. Hopefully, the rate of new cases will soon follow suit.
