LAS VEGAS (AP) — Nevada health officials reported the lowest daily increase of new coronavirus cases statewide in more than a month, and 18 additional deaths.

State COVID-19 response chief Caleb Cage said Tuesday the 548 new cases of COVID-19 since Monday represents a stabilization after several weeks.

He also points to a decrease in reported hospitalizations. On Tuesday, the number of known cases of COVID-19 in the state reached 57,520. The number of known deaths in Nevada, now 981, is approaching 1,000 since the pandemic began.

If you can spend another couple of minutes making a pledge of as little as $5, you’ll feel like a superhero defending democracy for less than the cost of a month of Netflix.
