The information on this page is provided from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture on food recalls occurring throughout the United States. The Southern Nevada Health District’s Environmental Health Division supports permitted food facilities in complying with recalls that have an impact in Clark County by providing information, conducting routine inspections, and through outreach activities as appropriate. Foodborne outbreaks are investigated in conjunction with the Health District’s Office of Epidemiology and Disease Surveillance.

The Nevada State Legislature passed Senate Bill 4 (SB 4) in an effort to prevent COVID-19 transmission in Public Accommodations. From this, the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services developed Regulations regarding COVID-19 prevention standards at Public Accommodation Facilities (NAC 447 E), which the Southern Nevada Health District Board of Health adopted. These Regulations will go into effect October 5, 2020, and will apply until the Governor of Nevada’s declaration of a public health emergency due to COVID-19 is lifted.

Why is date labeling important? Using date labeling lets us know when food should be discarded because it is no longer safe to eat. Expiration dates for TCS food are designed to control the growth of Listeria monocytogenes, bacteria that grow under refrigeration. How long can I keep TCS food?
