The seven-day average for newly reported COVID-19 cases is now 2,019, more than double the number earlier this month.
It is too soon for Gov. Steve Sisolak’s plea to residents to stay home as much as possible for two weeks to be reflected in the data, state officials said.
Numbers of cases, testing positivity rate, hospitalizations are all trending upwards in the state.
The state’s seven-day average of new cases also surpassed 1,000 for the first time since August, and hospitalizations across the state continued to climb.
