If you chose to dine indoors, keep your mask on as much as possible. I encourage restaurants and bars to try to expand outdoor seating options, and I encourage local governments to work with these businesses to meet this goal. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
That’s also why I encourage curbside, delivery, and/or carry out operations, & why health experts want to remind Nevadans & visitors that you must keep your mask on at all times when you are not actively eating or drinking, regardless of whether you are 6 feet from others or not. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
I know the majority of our bars & restaurants are doing their best, but these settings are proven to be high risk because they allow the opportunity for people to remove their face coverings in indoor settings around people outside of their household. That’s how the virus spreads — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
For restaurants and bars that serve food, reservations are required - no walk-ins. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
No more than 4 patrons per table and seating at bar or counter tops must continue to be socially distanced under the existing guidelines. Restaurants & bars should continue to have hand sanitizer available and should be conducting health screenings and/or temperature checks. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
Restaurants & Bars: Currently operating at 50% capacity. Under the Statewide Pause, they may continue to operate under strict social distancing requirements at 25% occupancy - indoor and outdoor. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
Under this Statewide Pause, no additional businesses will be closed, but capacity limits and new mitigation measures will be imposed on both businesses and gatherings. I will start by explaining what’s changing: — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
Going forward, we will reduce capacity in certain high-risk areas that have been shown nationally and in Nevada to contribute to the spread of COVID-19. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
In the last month or so, new research has emerged that continues to validate the importance of wearing a mask. They continue to be an essential tool in our fight. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
This expansion includes requiring masks during private gatherings – I will talk more about private gatherings in a minute. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
First, I am strengthening Nevada’s mask mandate across the board. Nevadans and visitors are now required to wear a mask at all times when you are around someone who is not part of your immediate household -- whether indoors or outdoors. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
That’s why I am announcing that effective Tuesday at 12:01 a.m., Nevada will be operating under a STATEWIDE PAUSE. with the following conditions. We will keep these restrictions in place for at least the next three weeks – I'll talk more about next steps soon. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
Today, I’m announcing new restrictions, in an effort to get this wildfire under control. I’m not issuing a shutdown order. My goal is to aggressively try to attack this spread, while maintaining some portion of our economy and our daily life. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
And believe me, I understand the stress - emotionally, mentally and economically - that you are all going through. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
I’ve mentioned this high wire act before – this great balancing act - and I feel like we’ve been living in this no-win situation for nearly nine months. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
While prioritizing the health and safety of Nevadans, I am also balancing the significant ramifications that further restrictions will have on our suffering economy. No state struggles with this more than Nevada due to the lack of diversity in our economy. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
From the start of this pandemic, there aren’t any decisions that don’t have negative consequences. Weighing the loss of jobs and businesses versus the loss of health and lives is painful, without a perfect solution. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
There is consensus on one inescapable conclusion: we are on a rapid trajectory that threatens to overwhelm our health care system, our frontline health workers, and your access to care. So it’s time to act. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
This is our biggest threat. You saw it in New York, you can see it in El Paso right now. This can’t become our reality. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
It’s not just for COVID –if you get in a car accident, or have a heart attack, or break a wrist...you won’t be able to access care if our hospitals are full and there isn’t enough staff. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
If hospital beds continue filling at this rate and staffing shortages continue to increase as they are now – that means ALL Nevadans will have limited access to the care they may need. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
Let me explain this quickly: whether you believe in the science of COVID or not, the reality is this – COVID is filling up our hospital beds and that threatens all Nevadans. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
Our public health infrastructure is quickly becoming overwhelmed. And from the start I’ve made clear that in addition to saving lives, one of the main goals of our response is to protect our public health system and our hospitals from being overwhelmed. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
Due to massive increase in community spread, we are experiencing significant outbreaks in our institutional settings, including our correctional facilities. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
Some of our hospitals are experiencing staffing shortages because they have become infected or their family members have been diagnosed with COVID and workers are in quarantine. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
Our hospitals are experiencing record numbers and as you heard from Dr. Tony Slonim of Renown a couple weeks ago, they’ve started treating patients in an alternative care site in the parking lot. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
In fact, 10% of all COVID cases recorded in Nevada since the beginning of the pandemic were reported in the last seven days. Every minute, a Nevadan is diagnosed with COVID-19. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
Our case rate growth is at wildfire levels – even outpacing neighboring states, such as Arizona. All available models indicate that Nevada is in a “red zone” and our health experts anticipate continued case growth based on current trends. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
Just recently, we experienced a record number of daily cases – 2,416 in just one day. Our previous record was 1,639 in July. Today we once again had over 2,000 cases reported – 817 in Washoe County alone – greatly exceeding their previous record. — PolitiTweet.org
Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak
As of today, 13 of 17 of our counties are flagged for elevated risk of transmission. In the beginning of October, only 2 counties were flagged. Our statewide positivity rate is at a record16.5 percent, and as I mentioned, we’ve surpassed 2,000 deaths. — PolitiTweet.org
