New York City and Los Angeles are taking major steps to curb social interaction to fight the spread of the coronavirus.
The two biggest U.S. cities will limit restaurants to take out and delivery orders. New York City will also shut down nightclubs, movie theaters, small theater houses, concert venues and allow bars to only offer take out and deliveries -- starting Tuesday at 9 a.m., local time. Los Angeles will close bars and nightclubs, as well as movie theaters, performance venues and gyms by the end of Sunday.
