Gov. Charlie Baker announced a map that will highlight communities with greater than eight cases per 100,000 residents as high risk.
In the first map, Chelsea, Everett, Lynn and Revere are the highest risk areas, with over eight cases per 100,000 residents.
Moreover, Massachusetts health secretary Marylou Sudders says certain residents should consider face coverings inside their homes.
“Residents of these higher risk communities should wear a mask at all times, particularly when you cannot keep six feet away from others,” said Marylou Sudders, secretary of health and human services, during a press briefing Tuesday.
“You should also consider wearing a face covering inside your home if an older individual or someone with compromised medical condition is part of your immediate household.”
