LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak sent well wishes to President Donald Trump and the first lady during a Friday press conference.

"Sympathy goes out to the first family, for both the president and first lady, being positive after contracting the disease. We wish them a speedy recovery and a safe recovery," Sisolak said.

The governor said this is why it is so important to follow the state's guidelines on wearing a mask and practicing social distancing.

Gov. Sisolak also cited recent violations at a charity event that featured the Raiders at a local country club and the president's campaign rally in Henderson as examples of events putting Nevadans at risk.
