New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy said that people will now be required to wear masks outside in public when social distancing isn’t possible in the state.

Murphy, in an interview with MSNBC on Wednesday, said he will issue an executive order to mandate masks to curb the spread of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus.
