According to Mayors of five Massachusetts cities, the Baker-Polito Administration is doing too little to stop the spread of COVID, so they are taking action on their own to close businesses. As hospitals are filling up, municipal leaders are taking dramatic action despite the harm to businesses, especially in the absence of state or federal economic relief. They are frustrated by the lack of statewide action by the Baker-Polito Administration because residents and COVID flow freely among communities. https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/12/14/metro/mayor-walsh-other-city-mayors-agree-roll-back-reopening-wake-rising-covid-19-rates/
