Sisolak: "I feel confident in the June 4th target date" to reopen the gaming industry
On a press call, Sisolak said he thinks Phase 2 would last probably 2-3 weeks.
To move to next phases, he'll be looking at a continued decline in the rate of positive tests, more testing, build-up of infrastructure to contact trace

While the rate of the positives among all tests is going down as the number of tests goes up, a not-insignificant raw number of cases is still being found.
Sisolak said he doesn't have a figure at which he'd say the raw numbers are too high and we need to revert

Sisolak does say that it's important that if anyone you've been in contact with has tested positive, it's very important for you to get tested to help slow the spread
Chief of Staff Michelle White indicates the travel advisory - which advises people coming to the state to self-quarantine for 14 days - will be updated later in the week.
Sisolak said state is willing to pull back on reopening if problems emerge.
COS Michelle White says state officials have put a lot of thought into how to contact trace for visitors who are moving around and returning to other states.

Asked about how to enforce social distancing at bars, Sisolak said there is no shortage of people reporting issues and businesses not enforcing rules could lose license.
"I don't think it's worth losing your business license to let someone come up to the bar and get a beer."

Asked if employees will approach social distancing rule breakers at casinos, Sisolak says they'll be educating patrons but aren't law enforcement.
"Gaming Control Board is going to be very aggressive about being on the properties and making sure people are complying" with rules.
