Operative words

Today, Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak announced the Nevada Hospital Association is preparing to resume medically necessary procedures for care that has been delayed after the hospitals began to cease such procedures to support COVID-19 efforts... 'I know many of our hospitals, medical practices and dentist offices proactively paused medically necessary services to help flatten the curve, preserve personal protective equipment and help residents Stay Home for Nevada,' Gov Steve Sisolak said.... Nevada's Medical Advisory Team also supports the phased-in approach to resume limited medical and dental procedures under strict guidelines.
