(KMZA)--All Nemaha County restaurants, bars, bowling alleys and movie theaters have been ordered closed as of 8:00 Friday morning, March 20

The Nemaha County Board of Health and local heatlh officer issued the order Thursday due to growing concerns with the transmission and spread of COVID-19.

The order notes that restaurants may continue to provide carry out, drive-through and delivery of food and beverage services, but all dine-in seating is on hold at the current time.

The CDC is recommending the suspension of all non-essential gatherings or group events larger than 10 attendees.
