Due to the continued spread of the coronavirus in Louisiana, Governor Edwards has extended the restrictions on which businesses may operate and at what capacity for at least the next two weeks. Restaurants and retail stores may continue to operate at 50% capacity, while bars are still limited to selling alcohol only if it is packaged to go.
The Governor has also extended the requirement that face coverings be worn in public and at businesses through at least August 7th.
