Which Kentucky stores must close and which can stay open? Here’s the full list.

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has ordered all non-essential retailers in Kentucky to close to in-person traffic by 8 p.m. Monday in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19.

Retail businesses that are deemed non-essential by the order may still provide local delivery and curbside service of online or telephone orders.

Essential retail businesses that remain open during the coronavirus pandemic must follow, to the fullest extent practical, the social distancing and hygiene guidance provided by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Kentucky Department for Public Health. This includes separating employees and customers by at least six feet, regularly disinfecting frequently touched surfaces, enforcing regular hand washing and ordering sick individuals to leave the premises.

Here’s the full list of retailers that can continue operating as normal and retailers that must close to in-person traffic:
