State health officials on Sunday reported 1,131 new coronavirus cases, pushing the total to 50,205 since the pandemic began.
There were no additional deaths reported, keeping the total at 832 known deaths.
According to the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services, the average number of new confirmed cases daily over the past two weeks has remained fairly constant.
The number of infections is thought to be far higher because many people have not been tested, and studies suggest people can be infected with the virus without feeling sick.
