our apologies but I do have a life in the "real world" and have to get back to work...
....Breanna freaking out on COVID outbreaks...in a city that is already in the RED ZONE
juicy juicy...read us late tonight...
																																			
Today, our Board of Health is in the process
 of contact tracing two separate and significant clusters of COVID-19 
cases within the City of Medford: one from a potentially oversized 
gathering at Raso’s Grill, and another from a large Thanksgiving 
gathering at a private home.
 
For the cluster linked to Raso’s, there are 
several dates where employees and patrons may have been exposed. The 
Board of Health is continuing to contact trace, however: If you 
dined at or ordered takeout from Raso’s anytime between Monday, November
 23rd and Monday, November 30th, please contact the Medford Board of 
Health Resource Line as soon as possible by calling 781-475-5644. Leave a message, and a staff member will return your call.
 
Yesterday the City of Medford had 
54 positive cases in one day,
 making this our third-highest daily case rate overall. Like the entire 
state, we are seeing a surge in cases. We have urged everyone to be safe
 and follow regulations, especially for wearing masks and avoiding 
gathering sizes. And while the vast majority are doing the right thing 
and following the rules, I am incredibly sad, disappointed, and angry 
that others continue to be irresponsible and put people at risk.
 
 
People have sacrificed so much in these last
 10 months. We have worked hard to get kids back in school, to keep our 
businesses open, and prevent hospitals from being overwhelmed. The 
blatant disregard for following the
 guidelines and orders from the State including gathering sizes, and from what I am seeing, people not wearing masks, is putting our community at risk.
 
 
We are and will continue to take this 
seriously. We are contact tracing, conducting investigations, and will 
continue to take action as necessary including issuing fines to any 
person or business who violates existing COVID-19 regulations.
