At this time, we recommend postponing or canceling mass gatherings and large community events where large numbers of people are within arm’s length of one another.
In a Q&A session, county officials mentioned concerts and arena events as examples of such "mass gatherings and large community events." They did not discuss college or youth sports events. They are not closing schools.

I would emphasize this quote from county: I want to remind the public that the vast majority of people who become infected with COVID-19 do not become seriously ill, and fully recover. We are making these recommendations to protect the most vulnerable members of our community from the virus, and slow its spread,” said Dr. Sara Cody, County Public Health Officer.
