Ohio is seemingly the first state to impose such restrictions, as the state attempts to slow the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus. Ohio's Department of Health on Sunday reported 37 confirmed cases of the disease.
Lt. Gov. Jon Husted said that bar and restaurant owners can return unopened high-proof liquor they may have purchased in the last month for the holiday and other upcoming festivities. While the DeWine administration was able to unilaterally make those changes to unemployment compensation rules, Husted said they'll need the Ohio legislature to strengthen the system in the future.
In the last week, Ohio has imposed an increasing number of restrictions on businesses and social activities, most prominently banning most"mass gatherings" of more than 100 people and suspending all schools for three weeks.that three weeks likely won't be long enough to close schools, and that the order may be extended.
