"There's not much more we can take," the Boston mayor said.
BOSTON — Mayor Marty Walsh said on Thursday that with COVID-19 cases surging in the city, officials may be forced to put new shutdowns in place if residents don’t help stop the spread of the virus.
Asked about what additional guidelines the city could put in place to slow the spread of coronavirus, Walsh said “There’s not much more we can take.”
“I mean, we have we have a curfew in place from 10 p.m. to five in the morning. We have a mask order and people wear masks. We’re asking people to wash your hands and physical, social distance. Our schools are closed right now,” said Walsh. “The next step is shutting everything down, that’s the next step. And we’ve done that before.”
