Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak extended his state's coronavirus restrictions through at least Jan. 15 as COVID-19 cases and deaths surge in the Silver State.

Nearly every state in the U.S. reports more than 100 people hospitalized per million, according to the COVID Tracking Project. However, Nevada reports 592, which translates into one out of 1,700 people in the state, according to the project.

"We continue to see an increase of hospitalizations statewide with almost 1,700 Nevadans battling COVID as of Friday," Sisolak said at a press conference Sunday.

The governor also announced Sunday that he would sign an order to place a moratorium on most residential evictions in Nevada.

Since the start of the pandemic, Nevada has had more than 186,000 cases, with at least 2,529 deaths.

The first vaccinations in the state of Washington could be distributed as early as Tuesday, Gov. Jay Inslee said.

The initial shipment of the Pfizer vaccine arrives in the state on Monday.

"This is just fantastic news ... we are getting this vaccine," the governor said, adding he will get the vaccine himself when it is appropriate for his age group.

"Health care workers and long-term care residents will receive the vaccine first," he said.

The Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency reported 1,030 newly diagnosed COVID-19 cases on Sunday, bringing the country's total to 46,645.

Yonhap reports that President Moon Jae-in held an emergency meeting and called the current situation "the worst crisis" since the outbreak began and a "desperate time" when the government should make an all-out effort stem further infections.
