Woburn's Most-Read Story Of 2020: First Coronavirus Quarantine

WOBURN, MA — On March 10, 2020, Woburn did not have any confirmed coronavirus cases. Schools were still open. Statewide, there were fewer than 100 confirmed cases.

That day, a Shamrock Elementary School student went into self-quarantine, after being in contact with a presumed positive six days earlier and Superintendent Matthew Crowley canceled all field trips in the district.

Last week, we asked readers what they thought was the site's most-read story. The answer: that first student quarantine.

Coronavirus was not the only story making headlines in 2020, but in Woburn, nothing else captured as much attention.

These were the top three stories:

1. Woburn Cancels Field Trips, One Student In Quarantine
2. Police: No Foul Play Involved In Body Found In Horn Pond
3. State Data: Woburn A Local Coronavirus Hotspot Over Last 2 Weeks
