NJ veterans' homes still exposing residents to health dangers: Feds

WNYC News | Sep 7, 2023

 

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy's administration violated the constitutional rights of residents of veterans' homes in New Jersey during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a U.S. Department of Justice report. And despite new management, the homes continue to provide inadequate care and prevention of contagious diseases, the report said.

Scott Fallon reports on COVID-19 for The Record newspaper. He joined WNYC's Sean Carlson to discuss the report.
