First Lyon County COVID-19 case confirmed

Robert Perea, The Fernley Reporter

Carson City Health and Human Services (CCHHS) is reporting two new positive cases of COVID-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus in the Quad County region, including the first confirmed case in Lyon County. CCHHS did not specify where in Lyon County the infected person lives.

This brings the total number of cases in the Quad-County region, which includes Carson City, Douglas, Lyon, and Storey counties, to six.

The two additional cases are a male Lyon County resident in his 60’s with recent travel history to the Bay Area and a female Douglas County resident in her 60’s with no recent travel history.

The case count for each county is:

  • Carson City: 2
  • Douglas County: 3
  • Lyon County: 1
  • Storey County: 0

All cases are self-isolating in their home and are in stable conditions.

It smells like sewage and it can be bad enough that people don’t want to be outside or open their windows. It would be helpful to get an investigative journalist help the Fernley residents get a clear answer from the City, NDEP, and any involved facilities. I was really disappointed that the smell was not disclosed by my realtor when I moved here. I enjoy Fernley and am seeing the improvements that are being made.

Why does the County have to pay the whole bill? Just my opinion. Comment publication date: 5/7/26, 10:26 AM Comment source: Storey County, Tesla partner to extend I-80 Patrick on-ramp
