MESSAGE FROM MAYOR NEIL PERRY: Good afternoon - We received notice of 10 new cases today, bringing the total number of confirmed Methuen residents to 104. At this point, we've confirmed that 11 of these individuals have recovered and are out of quarantine. What great news for them and their families.

Sadly, we have been notified of our first 'possible COVID-19' death in Methuen. Apparently, in this case, there were other preexisting conditions and the exact cause of death is unclear. Nevertheless, this is the most sobering news yet regarding the seriousness of the current situation. Our thoughts and prayers are with this family.

Please continue to stay home as much as you can, practice responsible physical distancing and aggressive personal hygiene. All of this is going to continue to get worse before it gets better. We all need to do our part to limit the spread of this virus.

Be good to one another and stay safe!
