Additionally, bars in Stanislaus County were recommended to close by state public health authorities, but were not included in the closure order.

Newsom announced the shutdown – arriving two days after Texas Gov. Greg Abbott similarly shut down the Lone Star State’s bars – via Twitter on Sunday afternoon.
