BJ Seidl uses bleach to clean Burnhearts on Monday, March 16, 2020 at 2599 S. Logan Ave. in Milwaukee, Wis. He co-owns the bar with his wife and is closing the bar for the foreseeable future. Gov. Tony Evers on Monday banned gatherings of 50 people or more, requiring bars and restaurants to limit their patrons as the state braces for coronavirus to spread through communities. Evers made the announcement on the eve of one of the busiest days in Wisconsin bars, saying the order was crucial to prevent the spread of coronavirus as crowds continue to gather together to drink and eat despite urgent advice from state and federal health officials to stay indoors and away from others.
