Public-health experts and government officials have stressed the importance of social distancing to slow the spread of airborne infections. The term refers to bread measures meant to keep people away from one another, including canceling sporting events, closing schools, having employees work from home, and maintaining distance from sick people.

“Large events and mass gatherings can contribute to the spread of COVID-19 in the United States via travelers who attend these events and introduce the virus to new communities…………[large gatherings included] “festivals, parades, concerts, sporting events, weddings, and other types of assemblies.”

The CDC said the recommendation “does not apply to the day to day operation of organizations such as schools, institutes of higher learning, or businesses,” but local and state governments are already heeding the CDC’s advice.

NYC, Los Angeles, and Washington state have announced a shutdown of bars and restaurants. Here are all the places taking drastic measures to curb the spread of coronavirus.
