On June 28, 2020, Governor Newsom directed bars to close in five counties on the state's watch list: Fresno, Kern, Kings, Los Angeles, and Tulare. These join two other counties – Imperial and San Joaquin – with bars already subject to such mandatory closings. The state has recommended bar closings in eight other counties.
