All residents in the state are now advised to wear masks when out in public in an effort to help curb the spread of COVID-19, Governor Baker announced on Friday.

If you don’t have access to a mask you can easily make one. Watch how to make a mask out of common items in this video from the CDC.

The Lynn Public Health Department has confirmed that as of today, April 10, 2020, the number of confirmed positive COVID-19 cases has risen to 474, 16 have recovered, and 6 Lynn residents have died. As the number of cases in Lynn continue to rise, residents need to be vigilant of the increasing threat of the spread of COVID-19 resulting from the lack of compliance with social distancing guidelines by some in our community. I implore you to stay home.
