Sisolak said during a press conference that he expects the novel coronavirus to get much worse before it gets better if the state doesn't do something to curb the spread of the virus throughout the state. Sisolak says that the health of the state's residents are more important than any economic concerns.

Sisolak says that he is now ordering all nonessential businesses to close. He is no longer asking, he is directing. The governor says this is not the time to try and find loopholes and businesses that not considered nonessential must shut down.

The closures will be in effect until April 16...there has been a 70% increase in positive cases in the last 3 days. Sisolak also talked about the shortages of test kits that prevent being able to get a true idea of how many people who are infected.

1. Kicked and Recommend.

Thanks, ffr. Thanks for spreading the word.

Without the tests some will never believe the crisis we are in. Fact is we have not tested. A few tests are really no tests at all. They are a drop in the bucket that is so small that none seem to even see the bottom much less the top.

2. Sure glad we do not have

Sandoval as our Governor. That would be one major shit show.

3. Dispensaries will be closing tonight for the duration.

But I will soldier on...people must have their Cheetos and beer and cigarettes after all.

5. It had to be done

Too many businesses were not closing. Drive up strip club peep shows?

There is no time for that crap during a national viral crisis. I just hope people stay home now and we don’t have to go to full CA shelter in place orders.
