Kentucky Governor says he doesn’t plan to issue mandate on gatherings around Christmas

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (WBKO) - Governor Beshear reported that 88 percent of our region’s ICU beds are full. 

13 News sat down with the governor Friday morning to discuss the state’s response to COVID. On Thursday, Beshear said that Kentuckians would need to celebrate Christmas ‘safely.’ For him, he said this looks like not gathering. 

However, he added he doesn’t plan to issue an executive order or mandate about gathering similar to what he issued around Thanksgiving, but rather a “strong recommendation.”
