ESSEX COUNTY, NJ — How many people have gotten a COVID-19 vaccine in Belleville and Nutley? (See local statistics below)

The New Jersey Department of Health recently began releasing vaccine statistics for each city and town in the state. The state’s website doesn’t note which variety of the vaccine have been given. The Pfizer and Moderna versions require two doses spaced several weeks apart; the Johnson & Johnson vaccine only requires a single dose.

State health officials noted that the website may show more than 100 percent vaccine coverage for some towns due to several reasons, including people moving, students living on campus in the area, and people living in long-term care facilities.
