Region could move into yellow on COVID Risk Meter

Washoe County adds COVID cases in the triple digits for the first time in nearly three weeks. The county added 102 cases and 373 recoveries Wednesday. The death toll stands at 640.

But still, the region could be moving into yellow on the Truckee Meadows COVID Risk Meter. Local health officials say the move into a more moderate level is tied to a daily decrease in new COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations, including ICU bed usage.
