New Jersey was one of the first states to experience the sharp scourge of the COVID-19 virus when cases began spreading in the spring. To date, New Jersey has 190,971 confirmed COVID-19 cases and 14,150 deaths.

Indoor dining at restaurants and bars were shut down in the state's first wave of coronavirus pandemic closures this March. Outdoor dining in New Jersey resumed on June 15 and there were hopes for resuming indoor dining in July, but those were dashed by state health officials as coronavirus cases continued to rise.

Murphy plans to release more details about the indoor dining resumption at a 1 p.m. news conference on Monday.
