Governor Charlie Baker said Thursday that Massachusetts reached a significant benchmark Wednesday in the battle against COVID-19, with the tally of hospitalized patients dipping below 500 statewide for the first time since October.
Baker, a Republican, made the comments during a briefing at Panela Restaurant in Lowell, to mark the latest round of pandemic small business relief grants.
“We’re down to 485, plus or minus,” Baker said of the tally of hospitalized patients, which the state also released in its daily report Wednesday. “There’s a lot of very positive stuff going on here. I think the thing we’re going to want to do is work with our colleagues in local government and with our colleagues in business” to highlight available resources.
