Governor Steve Sisolak made the announcement on February 10 via a video message. The mandate removal will affect every Nevada citizen, regardless of their vaccination status, and comes as the Nevada Health Response estimates that the state registers around 1,278 confirmed cases of COVID-19 every day. The governor's announcement comes as states nationwide arein hopes for a return to normalcy as the Omicron waves appears to subside.
High-risk individuals are also encouraged to continue wearing masks, as well as those attending public transportation, hospitals and clinics. Despite a mask mandate no longer being in place, citizens do not have to stop wearing masks, and Sisolek said during his address that those who continue wearing them should be treated respectfully.
"Just about every business in Nevada has a 'help wanted' sign on their door," wrote NFIB State Director Randi Thompson."We continue to have the highest unemployment rate in the nation, and the mask mandate contributes to that. Employers tell me that when they interview potential employees, they ask: 'Will I have to wear a mask? If so, then I won't take the job.
