Nevada's Clark County has recorded a decline in its 7-day and 14-day average of new COVID cases.
The figures suggest that Las Vegas, which was one of the first areas in the country to see the Delta variant spread rapidly in early July, may have seen the worst of the latest wave pass. The surge of COVID cases reported last month coincided with more businesses in Nevada opening and tourists being welcomed back to the state.
"This Delta variant is truly Godzilla," Cassius Lockett, the Southern Nevada Health District's director of disease surveillance and control, told the"It is truly burning down communities that are unvaccinated and now moving its way into fully vaccinated individuals, as well." According to the Nevada Hospital Association's latest weekly round up, unvaccinated COVID-19 patients"continue to fill southern Nevada hospitals" which is contributing to hospital overcrowding and staffing shortages.
