Jon Karr, an Elko County Board of Health commissioner, is alleged to have stated that the item should not have been added to the agenda and that he doesn’t see it moving forward.
According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Karr stated that “We’ve been notified already by legal that we do not have the authority to issue the moratorium.”
“I believe it’s just a miscommunication, and I’m hoping it gets tabled indefinitely,” he added.

Karr stated that people have two options: they can either get the vaccine or not.
“You have the right, together with your doctor, to decide which vaccines you should or should not receive.” … Not rural commissioners with more insight.
