TUCSON, Ariz. (KOLD News 13) - Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey has ordered all bars, nightclubs, gyms, movie theaters and water parks to close for 30 days due to the spike in COVID-19 cases.

The start of school was pushed back to Aug. 17, but Ducey said that could change again if the virus spreads more.

Ducey made the announcement during a news conference Monday, June 29. The executive order goes into effect at 8 p.m. Monday.

“This will help relieve stress on our health care system and give time for new transmissions to slow,” Ducey tweeted out.
