– News about Quincy from Quincy Quarry News with commentary added.
Quincy city officials confirm first presumptive positive case of Corona Virus in Quincy.
Today apparently the first formal statement of any sort by the Koch Maladministration about the Corona Virus.
“It’s nothing we can’t get through,” said Quincy Mayor Thomas P. Koch in a statement eerily reflective of recent statements and tweets by President Donald Trump.

Then again, with Quincy no longer having a hospital to help support a local response to COVID-19 virus, what else could Mayor Koch say?
That and so what for the fact that Quincy Quarry heard from a reliable source ten days ago that there appeared to be travel-related family with children quarantines underway in Northern Quincy.
Additionally troubling, today the South Shore Broadsheet reported that “Quincy has had dozens of residents self-quarantine as a precaution over the last month.”
Further troubling, the broadsheet added that as of today, thirty-five Quincy residents continue to remain in quarantine.
Preparing for grave consequences …

So much for transparency apparently or announcing any actual as well as actually consequential municipal preparedness efforts undertaken to respond to a widely expected and major public health crisis with readily obvious potential grave consequences.
In any event, the actually acknowledged by City Hall presumptive positive case of the COVID-19 virus in Quincy is associated with the Biogen employee conference held last month in Boston and which apparently infected a Quincy woman who is now in self-quarantined at home announced Mayor Thomas P. Koch and Commissioner of Public Health Ruth Jones confirmed today in a joint prepared statement.
Koch has made every effort to keep the public informed . . . NOT!
Thanks for nothing.
Koch was in Ireland vacationing with Chamber of Commerce and business people last week instead of preparing the city. The Corona Virus is almost as bad as the Koch Nepotism Virus, except for the fact that the Nepotism virus spreads much quicker.
Interesting to note that towns all over the South Shore are reacting in ways that may help stem the spread of the virus. Quincy, too, is limiting certain events — mostly school related activities. But that points up something else entirely — that there really isn’t much going on in Quincy. Other than building the next boring, partially taxpayer-funded, apartment/condo project.
