The City of Tallahassee and Leon County announced on Tuesday that they have issued a shelter-in-place order and curfew. The decision was announced during a joint press conference on Tuesday.

Leon County is the home of Florida State University. The University moved to online learning more than a week ago and all on-campus activities have been either suspended or canceled, including athletics.

The stay-at-home order goes into effect starting at 11 p.m. on Wednesday.

The stay-at-home order bans gatherings involving 10 people or more and requires residents to remain in-home with a few exceptions such as going to work, to the grocery store and pharmacies, getting gas and other essential activities.

Along with the stay-at-home order, a curfew is being enacted. The curfew will go from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. daily.

As of Tuesday morning, the Florida Department of Health had confirmed eight positive coronavirus cases in Leon County. Two of those cases involved non-Florida residents and a third was not diagnosed or isolated in Florida, per FDOH.
