A 10-day-old infant is now home after being treated for coronavirus at a Hudson County hospital over the weekend. "The infant has been discharged and is recovering with the parents at home," said Philip Swibinski, a spokesman for North Bergen Mayor Nicholas Sacco.

The baby boy is said to have had a fever and cough, so the parents brought him to Palisades Medical Center on Saturday. "His parents, both of whom have not displayed any symptoms, have been tested for the coronavirus and are awaiting the results," says a local story.

The spokesman for the North Bergen Mayor says that he has no information on how the baby might have been exposed, but the North Bergen Health Department is investigating. At this time the infant's parents, both of whom have not displayed any symptoms, have been tested for the coronavirus and are awaiting the results.
