RENO, Nev. (AP) — Washoe County's health district officer fears the governor's new push to fully reopen businesses statewide by June 1 will accelerate a recent rise in COVID-19 cases.

Clark County Commission Chairwoman Marilyn Kirkpatrick says they can meet the June 1 goal to fully reopen in Las Vegas.
