FRAMINGHAM – For the 8th consecutive week in a row, Framingham is a high-risk or red community for the coronavirus.

The City of Framingham is one of six communities out of 351 that the state is providing additional assistance. Framingham is featured in the new television ads promoting COVID safety by the Commonwealth.

Earlier this week the state used its emergency wireless network to send out a text alert to the 10 communities hardest hit by the virus, including Framingham.

Since the beginning of September, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts provided outreach teams who speak multi-languages to distribute multi-language flyers and free masks to help stop the spread of COVID-19 in Framingham.
