Sisolak also ended the mask mandate for schools, but said local school districts may set their own policies.
Let me be clear – the State will no longer require masks in public places, but employers and organizations, including school districts, may set their own policies, and I encourage them to work with their employees and communities to ensure that policies are in place.

Sisolak cited a ‘rapid decline’ in Covid case numbers, coupled with declining hospitalizations and high vaccination rates in his decision to drop the mask mandate.

We reported our first Omicron case two months ago. Nevada recorded our single highest day of new cases on January 10 with 7,865 cases. We’re currently averaging around 1,280 cases per day.
