BOSTON - Saturday, May 2, 2020 - Mayor Martin J. Walsh today shared with residents a tutorial and guidance on how to make a face covering at home, given new statewide guidance that mandates that all residents wear a face covering when in public places, and when unable to practice social distancing. The mandate goes into effect on May 6, and builds on Mayor Walsh's continued call for residents to wear a face covering when outside of the home.
"We need to do everything we can to help people understand the importance of wearing a face covering whenever you leave your home and you're near other people. This is about protecting everyone you come into contact with, especially since you could be sick without knowing it," said Mayor Walsh. "It's easy to make your own face covering and we want to empower every resident with the information they need. We are already seeing the results that our actions are having to limit the spread of the virus, and this will go a long way toward keeping our residents safe."
