Thursday’s #CalendarKeepers for the #CountdownTo250 were the dedicated members of the Lexington Board of Health! In keeping with the theme, we recognize Paul Revere who established the first BOH, seeking to promote the health of residents.
Tasked with protecting and promoting the health and well-being of our community, the Board of Health plays a vital role in keeping Lexington safe and thriving. The Board of Health plays a vital role in keeping Lexington safe and thriving. From ensuring public health standards to addressing environmental health concerns, emergency preparedness, and preventing infectious diseases, their work touches every corner of our lives.
As we approach #Lex250, let’s also take a moment to prioritize our own health—if you haven’t already, now is a great time to get your flu shot and stay up-to-date on COVID-19 and other recommended vaccines. Protect yourself and our community!
We’re proud to celebrate the Board of Health’s unwavering commitment to a healthier future for all who live, work and play in Lexington. Their efforts today build the foundation for a stronger, safer Lexington for generations to come.
