No new cases of COVID-19 were reported in Caldwell County today and 12 patients have recovered.
To help slow the spread of COVID-19, Governor Roy Cooper issued an executive order implementing stricter social distancing guidelines. The order, which went into effect at 5 p.m. today, requires retail stores to:
- Set limits on how many people can be in a store at one time
- Mark off checkout lines and other areas where customers gather to maintain a distance of six feet
- Take specific cleaning measures
The order also streamlines unemployment insurance claims and sets standards for long-term care facilities like requiring specific personal protective equipment and close monitoring of residents for COVID-19.
