Ohio bars and restaurants order to close to indoor patrons

https://www.dispatch.com/news/20200315/coronavirus-governor-orders-ohio-bars-restaurants-to-shut-down
Gov. Mike DeWine said the state health director will order all bars and restaurants to close at 9 p.m. tonight in Ohio.

DeWine said he came to the decision after hearing from people around the state on Saturday night who were concerned about crowded bars. He said he was concerned with St. Patrick’s Day coming up Tuesday that people would ignore warnings and go out to bars.

The governor encouraged restaurants to offer carry out or delivery service, but said they would not be allowed to have people congregating in them.
