Governor Steve Sisolak briefed the state yesterday on Covid-19 mitigation and vaccine efforts. The statewide 'pause' that was put into place prior to the Thanksgiving holiday has been extended another 30 days. Sisolak also announced changes to the State's playbook and vaccination tiers. To date, Nevada has received 170,400 doses of vaccine and 61,644 have been dispersed, this number includes 8,700 second doses that have been given. The vaccine is ordered one week in advance which makes it difficult to determine exactly when certain populations would receive it. The state is moving away from the tiered approach to a lane approach. One lane for first responders, one for frontline workers and another that will target vulnerable populations.
