CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) — Nevada's governor is warning residents that officials may need to roll back reopening measures if the coronavirus continues to spread at current rates throughout the state.
Gov. Steve Sisolak said Wednesday that Nevada could protect hospitals, rescue its economy and ensure children could return to classrooms if residents committed to face masks, social distancing and other steps to prevent community spread of the virus.
His remarks came a day before Washoe County officials will appear before the state's response task force for an emergency meeting to discuss a record spike in reported cases in the Reno-Sparks area.
