CDC, state update COVID-19 mask requirements
1share
Many Nevadans can put away their COVID-19 face coverings for daily use. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Thursday released updated guidance for mask usage related to the COVID-19 pandemic advising that fully-vaccinated individuals do not need to wear a mask in most indoor and outdoor locations.
Fully-vaccinated individuals can also cease social distancing, except as required by federal, state, local or tribal laws, rules and regulations, or workplace guidance.
Gov. Steve Sisolak, earlier this month, issued a directive tying Nevada’s mask mandate to CDC recommendations on mask usage. With the CDC’s updated guidance, Nevada’s requirements immediately changed to follow suit.
