All "non-life-sustaining" business will need to close to in-person traffic by 8 p.m. Thursday, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear announced Tuesday evening.

Beshear said that grocery stores, restaurants offering take-out and delivery, pharmacies, banks and gas stations, among other businesses, will be able to stay open — so long as they follow sanitation and social distancing guidelines set forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

This announcement comes after Beshear ordered all "nonessential" retail stores to close their doors by Monday evening.
