To date, there have been nearly 240,000 confirmed coronavirus cases in the state and 6,168 deaths. The catalyst for Wednesday’s closure order is a spike in new cases over the last couple weeks. There were 8,100 new cases reported on Tuesday, the largest single-day rise in cases in California since the start of the pandemic.
In addition to card rooms, both indoor and outdoor bars will be closed, with many beaches across the state off limits as Independence Day weekend arrives. Other facilities covered in the order include museums, zoos, movie theaters, restaurants, and family entertainment centers.
