Starting Friday, everyone in Nevada will have to wear a mask indoors again, whether you’re vaccinated or not.
This follows the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s new guidelines issued on Tuesday. The CDC says people living in areas with a high transmission rate of the virus, like Nevada, are urged to wear masks regardless of vaccination status.
Some COVID-19 hotspots like San Francisco, Seattle and New York are taking it a step further and requiring staff and customers to be vaccinated.
In Southern Nevada, that’s not currently a requirement.
Lina Ter-Oganova is a business owner in Henderson. She tells 13 Action News she will follow mask mandates and safety protocols but draws the line at requiring her employees to get vaccinated.
