Nevada’s controversial new school choice law is before the state Supreme Court, which in the coming weeks or months will determine whether it’s implemented or stopped on procedural grounds.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported this month that there were three cases of Legionnaires at the Luxor last year. In one case from December the victim died.
The Aria Hotel and Casino recently sent letters to its guests, telling them they may have been exposed to the bacteria causing Legionnaires disease between June 21-July 4. Six former Aria guests reported being diagnosed with Legionnaires disease. So what is Legionnaires? How did it get into Aria's water system? And why is the hotel sending out warning letters now, when the CDC notified Southern Nevada health officials of the potential problem back in 2010? A Southern Nevada Health District expert joins us with some answers.
