Nevada just recorded a record number of COVID-19 deaths: 299 in a week.
Since the start of the pandemic, close to 191,000 people in Clark County have tested positive for COVID-19. That includes more than 12,000 positive tests in the last week.
Greg Blake Miller got his positive diagnosis in November. He had the same symptoms as others: high fever, dry cough and aches. It wasn t until his blood oxygen level dropped to the low 90s, which was nine days after his diagnosis, that he was told by a doctor to go to a hospital.
Miller, 51, had no underlying health concerns but he developed COVID pneumonia. A doctor told him that if he had put off coming to the hospital just a day longer he might have ended up on a ventilator, which is a step that some COVID patients never recover from.
