NEVADA — The state updated its mandatory mask policy to reflect new guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Now fully vaccinated Nevadans do not need to wear a mask outdoors. The CDC updated Its guidance on April 27, allowing vaccinated people to go without a mask under certain outdoor conditions, although the agency does recommend wearing a mask at crowed outdoor concerts and sporting events. Unvaccinated people no longer need to wear a mask at small outdoor gatherings with fully vaccinated people. The governor’s updated directive notes that people still need to wear a mask indoors. Per the CDC, a fully vaccinated person received their second dose of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines or the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine at least two weeks ago. [LVRJ]
