Nevada governor Steve Sisolak has set a target date of 4 June for the reopening of the state’s casinos.

All casinos in the state were ordered to close on 17 March due to the novel coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, but with other states such as Louisiana and Mississippi reopening last week, Nevada has set out a roadmap of its own.
