Costco restricts the number of customers in the store

I picked up some flour and peanut butter from Costco after work today and noticed they had a small line out front. Turns out they've been ordered to restrict the number of customers in the store at one time. Kinda dumb but it wasn't too bad as the line moved very quickly and since we lined up to get in, there weren't any real line ups at the till. I still say the government is over reacting and overstepping in it's response. Small businesses need to stay open.
