Health

Town Officials and Emergency Management personnel continue to monitor the rapidly evolving COVID-19 public health emergency. Hopkinton’s Health Department is actively monitoring 24 residents, 3 are confirmed COVID-19 cases and 21 are under direct supervision with the Department. We continue to implement mitigation strategies to reduce the transmission of COVID-19 in the community. Currently, in Hopkinton we do not have any unlinked cases either related to travel or close contact with a known case of COVID-19.

Based on the Social Distancing Guidelines from the Hopkinton Health Department, in collaboration with the Hopkinton Emergency Management Group, and continued assessment of the local impact of COVID-19, the Hopkinton Public Schools, Hopkinton Public Library, and Hopkinton Senior Center will be closed through next week (Monday, March 16th, to Friday, March 20th). All Parks & Recreation programs are also cancelled during this time.

The mantra “welcome home” lies at the heart of what the Hopkinton Center for the Arts provides its community of artists, teachers, students and patrons– a safe place for artistic expression, exploration and growth.

When that safety is threatened by the unsettling threat of a pandemic, we must respond calmly, with clarity and conviction that we are taking appropriate measures to protect you and your families who have supported our mission over the years.

If you have been notified that you may have had an exposure to a close contact or a presumptive positive COVID-19, the Hopkinton Health Department offers the following guidelines for clarification. Please note that the CDC would consider contact with a contact exposure as “no identifiable” risk for transmission, but we have decided as a department to provide our residents education about symptoms of COVID-19 and the incubation period.
