Reminder - Mass Governor Charlie Baker's new order, requiring the use of masks/face coverings in public places where you cannot socially distance from others is now in effect

This applies to workers and customers of essential businesses like grocery stores and pharmacies.

Face coverings include things like a bandana, scarf or other cloth material. Here's some directions on how to make a face covering from household materials: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/diy-cloth...

This order supersedes our City’s order. Please follow the state guidelines on mask wearing in public. The Governor’s order can be enforced by local & state police - $300 fine. https://www.mass.gov/news/baker-polito-administration-orders-use-of-mask...

It's IMPERATIVE we continue to practice physical distancing & adhere to health and safety guidelines to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Let's all do our part to #FlattenTheCurve
