Explanation:

The word "nevertheless" is a conjunctive adverb used to connect two independent clauses. When a conjunctive adverb is used to join two independent clauses, a semicolon should be placed before it (and a comma after it). The original sentence has a comma before "nevertheless", which is incorrect. So we replace the comma before "nevertheless" with a semicolon.
