Nevada’s key coronavirus metrics remained at high levels on Tuesday, with 1,002 COVID-19 cases and 33 deaths reported, but the state’s test positivity rate registered its third straight decline.
A daily breakdown of new cases indicated that all three days remained just below the two-week moving average of daily cases, which declined from 206 on Friday to 193 in Monday’s report.
The new policy means figures reported on Mondays and Tuesdays will be inflated, as the state reports all the new cases, deaths and other updates from Friday through Sunday.
