Just as before, this plan will not work if we don’t have full participation from all Nevadans – every county, municipality, business, employee, neighbor, and family. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Until the first assessment takes place and action plans are finalized between the counties and the task force, the current restrictions for bars, pubs and taverns will remain in place for the four counties previously identified as meeting increased transmission risk criteria. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

I want to be clear: in no way are we relaxing our mitigation efforts – we are taking a more strategic, aggressive approach that will target this disease where it is spreading and take action to stop it. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

In the case that there is not enough data or info needed to take a targeted approach in a county, or if a county is not collaborating w/ the State in a productive manner, we will not hesitate to implement mitigation measures in accepted high risk settings. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Its through this review process that the county and State will be able to determine the most effective targeted approach to take to mitigate the spread in that area. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

The Task Force will also be looking at other critical areas that will determine why a county is experiencing an increased risk level, such as: Hospital Capacity, PPE, Testing Capacity, Case Investigation &Contact Tracing , Protection of Vulnerable Populations & Enforcement — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

This could lead to targeted measures such as: Increased enforcement Decrease in gathering size Decrease in fire code capacity for certain businesses & more... — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

During that assessment, the Task Force & county will review all available data & statewide critical metrics to determine the root cause of the spread, and ultimately come up with an action plan to address it... — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

If a county is determined to have an increased risk based on the data, they will enter an assessment and review process with the state task force that could result in changing the county’s mitigation level... — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

The COVID-19 response task force will then review the criteria & see which counties are experiencing a decrease in risk, or an increased risk, meaning a county met two or more of these criteria for two or more consecutive weeks... — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Here's a quick summary: Every week, using data, the State will update the three Elevated Disease Transmission criteria for each county... — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

This new approach will ensure the State, in coordination with each county, can assess all the data & make timely decisions to address identified risk areas. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

But there's good news: by switching to a strategic, targeted approach, we can protect the health of Nevadans by mitigating the spread of disease at the root of where it is occurring, all while keeping our economy open & avoiding hurting the businesses that are doing their part — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

However, shutting down public & economic activity is not sustainable in the long term. Hundreds of thousands lost jobs, businesses suffered, & our fragile economy took a massive hit. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

At the beginning of this response, we took bold moves to flatten the curve by issuing broad-based stay-at-home orders and closures, and it worked – because outside of a vaccine, we know that decreasing interactions and mobility is a successful measure to mitigate the spread. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

The State of Nevada and our nation are still in response mode to the COVID-19 pandemic and will be for the foreseeable future. The virus is still infecting people and is likely to do so for the months ahead until a vaccine is developed. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Tonight, we are laying out a long term strategy for mitigating the spread of COVID-19 in Nevada through a targeted approach – all centered back to our original goal of making our response state managed and locally executed. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

We have learned a lot day-by-day about how best to analyze this data & tackle this disease, and in the last week, the @NVHealthRespon1 Team finalized a long term mitigation strategy for the state of Nevada to help us provide some predictability and stability moving forward. — PolitiTweet.org

I am confident that Secretary of State Cegavske, in coordination with local clerks and registrars, will run a safe, fair and accessible election this November. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Nevada is widely recognized as being a leader in election administration, and this bill will enable election officials to continue to support the safest, most accessible election possible under these unprecedented circumstances. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

This bill will help prevent Nevadans from experiencing the long lines at polling locations they faced during the Primary election, which will protect their safety, safeguard their right to make their voices heard, and help reduce the spread of COVID-19. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Today, I signed AB 4, which ensures protections for Nevadans to vote safely at the November election during the pandemic. During this global pandemic, I made a commitment that we’d do all we can to allow Nevadans to safely cast a ballot in the upcoming November election. https://t.co/jv224jObnP — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Thanks @GovHerbert for the chance to join #MaskUpAmerica Nevada is Battle Born, & we know to beat #COVID19, we must do it together. That means doing our part & wearing face coverings. Next, I want to hear from @GovPritzker, why do you wear a mask? https://t.co/uuisVBoOXz — PolitiTweet.org
