A total of 26 residents of Princeton have tested positive for COVID-19 as of Monday, officials said.

Two people are hospitalized. Two people are healthcare workers. No first responders who live in Princeton have tested positive. Eight of the cases are no longer considered active.

One positive case is for a child under the age of 11, and one is for a child between the ages of 11 and 17. Nineteen residents between the ages of 18 and 65 have tested positive, while five residents 66 and older have tested positive. Fifteen males and 11 females have tested positive (a local health department report last week incorrectly listed nine males and one female as positive. The correct number was seven males and three females.)

The number of positive COVID-19 test results in Mercer County was 249 as of Monday.

A drive-up testing center will open for Mercer County residents at the Quaker Bridge Mall on Tuesday at 8 a.m. The center will be open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays, by appointment only, for residents with symptoms of COVID-19. You must see a doctor in order to get permission for a test and an appointment at the center.
