As COVID-19 cases rise in Provincetown, town leaders require masks indoors


As COVID-19 cases rise in Provincetown, town leaders require masks indoors
PROVINCETOWN – As COVID-19 cases continue to rise in Provincetown, town leaders have reinstated an indoor mask mandate.  
The Select Board and Board of Health unanimously voted in favor of the mandate during an emergency joint meeting on Sunday, July 25. The meeting was held remotely, and no public comment was allowed. More than 500 people listened into the meeting.   
Mandate follows public health advisory 
Last Monday, July 19, the two board issued a public health advisory encouraging testing despite vaccination status and the wearing of face masks indoors. 
While the issuance of the advisory did lead to some changes in the behavior of community members, it may not have led to the change in behavior town officials was hoping to see, Town Manager Alex Morse said at the beginning of the meeting on Sunday.

A state-run nursing home in Rifle has so far accumulated 15 patient deaths caused by COVID-19, a Colorado department spokesperson confirms.
Colorado Department of Health and Human Services Deputy Director of Communications Madlynn Ruble said the deaths are suspected of stemming from the facility’s “memory care neighborhood.”
“Sometimes it’s hard to control the actions of some residents,” she said. “We can’t lock them in their rooms. This is not the quality of life.”
According to a previous email sent to the Post Independent, Ruble stated the nursing home quickly and the residents who succumbed had multiple comorbidities and were very elderly.
