Mask Violation at 1 City Hall Plz

This 311 user says, “In the North End, the great majority of teenagers and twenty-somethings are on the streets without masks. Perhaps the danger to the elderly has been emphasized with the result that the danger to teens and twenties is being missed. Somehow they must be made to understand that death will have the same finality for them as for other age groups.”

  1. We’ve limited our walks to twice a week, but when we are out, we feel the older group most “at risk” are the ones who aren’t respecting the social distance of 6 feet or more. We can’t believe how many older people walk right next to us! (We have our son in a stroller so we aren’t able to quickly navigate to the street out of their way).

  2. Person? Passed out behind the Steri Rink, shouldn’t that be a 911? I have seen that place used as a bed-n-no breakfast. The Mission blankets are a clue.
