Santa Clara County has fallen to the orange tier of coronavirus restrictions along with several other Bay Area counties, just a week after San Mateo County became the first in the region to do so.

Here’s a list of businesses that are allowed to open in the orange tier:

  • Bars that don’t provide meals (only outdoors)
  • Movie theaters (50% capacity or 200 people, whichever is fewer)
  • Amusement parks and theme parks (25% capacity or 500 people, whichever is fewer)

Here’s a list of businesses allowed in the red tier, but with expanded capacity in the orange tier:

  • Shopping malls (no capacity limit provided by state)
  • Places of worship (50% capacity or 200 people, whichever is fewer)
  • Indoor dining (50% capacity or 200 people, whichever is fewer)
  • Gyms and fitness centers (25% capacity)
