Gov. John Bel Edwards announced Thursday that he will extend the phase 3 order in Louisiana until Nov. 6. Bars can reopen in phase 3, but only if the parish they are located in opt in to reopen with the state, and that parish has to have a 5% positivity rate or lower for at least two weeks. Bars will be restricted to 25% capacity with no more than 50 people inside. Last call will be at 11 p.m. and the bars must be closed by 11 p.m., per the governor’s order. Live music is still not allowed indoors and weddings, gatherings and birthday parties are capped at 250 people. According to Edwards, all other businesses can reopen at a 75% capacity. The mask mandate will remain in place.
