The surge on hospital capacity Nevada has been fearing has arrived at Renown. The medical center confirms that 10 COVID positive patients are now being cared for in a Mill Street parking garage that was retrofitted to become an alternate care site.

Hospitals in Reno, Sparks, and Carson City are seeing the highest rate of hospitalizations due to COVID-19 since the start of the pandemic.
