Thanksgiving this week is on a collision course with the pandemic.

Gov. Charlie Baker continues to urge Massachusetts residents to not treat this holiday season like ones of the past. With social media full of pictures of packed airports, public health officials in Massachusetts briefed mayors on what could quickly turn into a dire situation over the holidays.

Somerville Mayor Joe Curtatone was at that briefing yesterday, and joins us to talk about how his community is preparing for the second surge of the virus.

This segment aired on November 23, 2020.
