LETTER: Nevada, Trump and the virus

He did not heed the mask and meeting mandates initiated by our governor and encouraged his supporters to do the same. He ended up in Walter Reed Hospital after testing positive for COVID-19. Nevada may have had a greater influence on this election than anyone could ever imagine.
