Las Vegas nightclubs and adult entertainment venues were permitted to reopen on May 1, county officials said. Public gatherings were relaxed May 1 to 80% capacity and social distancing requirements lessened from 6 feet to 3 feet, county officials said.
The county said capacity and social distancing rules will end when 60% of the eligible population has at least one vaccine dose.
