a few State Parks are open as of today.. social distance is it working?
Ashland, Hopkinton and Cochituate are open early, but most of the parking
lots on the sea shore are closed, per the Governor.
Having made 8 trips to various stores looking for just one item... I can
personally attest to very little to no social distancing going on in the Ham
stores. I've been wearing my mask (95) and gloves since my encounter at AMC
theaters in early February. And since reading the ever-increasing numbers of
those who have tested positive and those who have died, it may be time for the
Mayor to do a global reverse 911 call to everyone in the Town.
From what I gather from reading the local news, our BOH has been behind in
contact tracing as well as expanding the information on those who have tested
positive. I don't understand why the BOH can't at least tell us if A) the
age of the patients, B) where the newest of cases are due to community spread?
or imported from outside Framingham. We started with one case known to be from
the Bio Gen party and now we have three dead and double digit known tested
positive residents.
In a piece from the Globe (Kay Lazar and Mat Rocheleau) seems to suggest the
State gave little guidance to local BOH's and as of last summer, a report said
that our BOH's were not equipped to deal with such a medial disaster.
And to top all that bad news is a report in the Globe today that suggests Doctors
raise concern about "false negatives in results despite symptoms. 30% of
the tests conducted have had false negatives.
Lastly, why are the construction crews still working in Nobscot? Is the
moving of the church considered essential work? The Mayor should close this
project down for at least the end of April.

I agree with everything Jim says here I was in lowe’s and you have thought it was Christmas with all the shoppers. What are these idiots thinking?
Isn’t it a bit late to start contact tracing? This virus is here and has spread. How can you expect to change that fact now?
Just got a robo call from the Mayor. It was clear and in 3 languages. I had hoped for a stronger message but it's a start.
What’s the deal on enforcing social distancing? Can’t we force people to do this? Does not work unless everyone does it
not much anyone can do to enforce the social distance. Declaring a curfew may help, but there will always be people who think they don't have to abide by the warnings.
