Vaccinated diners, dancers, business owners and bodybuilders will be among those who can go maskless beginning June 1 in the Las Vegas area.
County lawmakers on Tuesday adopted Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines and dropped plans to tie business occupancy to COVID-19 vaccination rates.
The unanimous vote came after public speakers expressed anger and frustration with pandemic restrictions - especially the effects on children.
The CDC says fully vaccinated people can stop person-to-person distancing and mask-wearing outdoors in crowds and in most indoor settings.
Most casinos in Las Vegas have already returned to 100% occupancy after Nevada Gaming Control Board approval.
