Because of Governor Sisolak lifting the mask mandate, the University of Nevada is following suit.
In a letter to staff and students, University of Nevada President Brian Sandoval said the university is immediately lifting its mask mandate. So, employees and students and everyone else don't have to wear masks indoors regardless of vaccination status.
However, unvaccinated employees will still have to perform weekly COVID tests.
Also, effective immediately, proof of full COVID-19 vaccination will no longer be required to attend Nevada Athletics’ indoor events. Members of the public are not required to wear face coverings while inside Lawlor Events Center regardless of vaccination status.
