Our guests in this episode discuss innovative ways that Nevada adapted its COVID response, from both a top-down and bottom-up approach. In particular, they discuss challenges arising from working with both federal and local partners, and how those challenges were overcome in unique ways, such as moving state agencies, including the Division of Emergency Management, under the National Guard.
