Town Remains in Red “High Risk” Category — Town Administrator Mallory Aronstein is urging residents to closely follow COVID-19 prevention guidance following a recent sustained increase in the number of cases in town and continued designation as a red “high risk” community.
Town Administration Mallory Aronstein reports that the Town of Swansea has seen a further rise in positive COVID-19 cases in recent weeks, and town officials are continuing to urge the community to follow COVID-19 prevention guidance.
Today, the Baker-Polito Administration announced a series of targeted measures to disrupt the increasing trend of new COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations. Governor Charlie Baker announced these changes at a time where public health data has indicated that cases are rising, with cases up by 278% and hospitalizations up by 145% since Labor Day. These measures are meant to disrupt rising trends now, so the Commonwealth can keep the economy and schools open for residents and to prevent the need to roll back to Phase I or Phase II of the reopening plan.
