Town reports 65 newly confirmed cases; one new death
There were 65 newly confirmed COVID-19 cases over the past seven days through Wednesday (July 27), according to Town Manager Scott C. Crabtree. That’s eight more new cases in town than reported last week by the state Department of Public Health (DPH), increasing the overall total to 9,602 confirmed cases, according to Crabtree. There have been more than 800 confirmed cases over the past 14 weeks (which averages out to 57), as the virus continues to hang around, causing some people to keep wearing masks at Town Hall even though they are optional.
Meanwhile, the state reported one new COVID-19-related death in Saugus over the past seven days, increasing the overall total to 94 deaths since the outbreak of the Coronavirus in March of 2020.
“Our hearts and prayers go out to those families affected by this health pandemic,” Crabtree said.
