KANSAS CITY, Mo. —

Authorities say four core partners in the Kansas City, Missouri, metropolitan area will issue a "stay-at-home" order effective Tuesday.

Areas under the order will include Jackson County and Kansas City in Missouri, as well as Johnson County and Wyandotte County, Kansas, including KCK. Health officials said the move is necessary based on the "urgency of the COVID-19 public health emergency and imminent rapid progression of the pandemic in our area."

Authorities said beginning Tuesday, March 24, all residents will be expected to stay at home except for essential needs, or if they work for essentual businesses or services.

All jurisdictions listed will issue the order, which is expected to last for at least 30 days.
