Brockton, Framingham Among 55 Communities Labeled High Risk For COVID
CBS Boston 4/2/2021 Syndicated Local – CBS Boston
BROCKTON (CBS) – Brockton has once again been labeled as a high-risk community for coronavirus, and people are frustrated.
A steady stream of people got vaccines in Brockton on Thursday, but while it’s heartening to see, it’s small comfort for Connie Medeiros. Just weeks ago, she lost her husband and father to COVID. It happened just days apart.
“It’s just a nightmare,” said Connie Medeiros. “I still don’t accept it. I just feel like he’s still in the hospital. I feel like my dad is still in the hospital. I just can’t explain it.”
