Kentucky is rolling back its recommendations for social gatherings amid an increase in the number of COVID-19 cases reported in the state.

At a press conference Monday, Gov. Andy Beshear said he is recommending social gatherings should reduce to no more than 10 people, as opposed to the 50-person recommendation that was put into place as the state’s COVID-19 numbers plateaued weeks ago. The recommendation does not include bars, restaurants or front-facing businesses. The gatherings recommendation takes effect Monday, July 20.

Beshear also announced a travel advisory for Kentuckians. He said anyone traveling to Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Nevada, South Carolina or Texas should quarantine for 15 after returning home. The travel advisory covers states with COVID-19 positivity rates of 15 percent or more.

The recommendations come after Kentucky set a new high for daily case increases on Sunday, with 979 new COVID-19 cases that day. During Monday’s briefing, Beshear announced 258 new cases for the day, attributing the number to labs not reporting numbers to the state due to the weekend. He said he anticipates high numbers to be reported again by mid week. Beshear also announced one new death Monday.
