RENO Northern Nevada s top health officer said Wednesday that the return to an indoor mask mandate in most of the state is an unwelcome but necessary move amid a spike in COVID-19 infections he blames on the 43% of eligible residents who have not gotten vaccinated.
Health officials reported 1,179 new coronavirus cases statewide Wednesday, their highest level since February. Our COVID-19 transmission is driven by our unvaccinated population, Washoe County Health District Officer Kevin Dick told reporters in Reno.
He said he s especially frustrated by those who argue the decision on whether to get vaccinated is a personal choice that should be left to an individual because it only affects them.

RENO, Nev. (AP) Northern Nevada’s Washoe County has confirmed its first death related to the COVID-19 Delta variant, which was the most common variant among samples collected at the state public health lab last month and is accounting for one in four new cases reported nationally, the health district said Thursday.
“The Delta variant has become the most common COVID-19 variant in Washoe County over the last two weeks and is extremely contagious,” Washoe County Health District Officer Kevin Dick said.
The woman in her 40s who died from the Delta variant first identified in India had been hospitalized in the Reno-Sparks area, had no underlying conditions and had not received the COVID-19 vaccination, the county health district said Thursday.
