Masks are now mandatory for customers at restaurants and bars as they enter and exit and when they move around the business. Some former pool parties already reopened as extensions of pools at resorts, open to those 21 plus.

The board notes its guidelines represent minimum requirements that should be followed, and casinos can develop their own requirements. The Nevada Gaming Control Board also recommends frequent hand washing by staff, cleaning and social distancing at table games and slot machines, hand sanitizer available to visitors, and training on COVID-19 safety and disinfection protocols in English and Spanish for staff.
Casinos can only open at 50 percent capacity and will need to limit the number of people allowed inside.
