Entire state remains in turquoise
As of June 15, all 33 New Mexico counties are in the turquoise level (low risk) of the New Mexico Department of Health (NMDOH) statewide Covid-19 county-by-county risk assessment framework. Doña Ana County moved into turquoise for the first time May 5. The state began using the framework in July 2020. The next update is June 30.
Vaccinations
The state will phase out the framework when 60 percent of the state’s eligible adult population has been fully vaccinated, plus two weeks, allowing vaccinations to take full effect. The state expects the threshold to be reached by June 30. https://cv.nmhealth.org/public-health-orders-and-executive-orders/red-to-green/.
Facemasks
“New Mexicans who are fully vaccinated may … opt to set aside their facemasks in most environments, per updated CDC guidance,” NMDOH said in a May 19 news release. “Unvaccinated New Mexicans are required to retain their facemasks in public spaces and should seek out their vaccination immediately. Regardless of vaccination status, New Mexicans must adhere to local and commercial requirements regarding facemasks. All individuals, including those who are fully vaccinated, should continue to wear well-fitted masks where required by localities, tribal entities and individual businesses.”
Turquoise level criteria (from June 2 state public health order)
For a county to reach the turquoise level, three of the following or two of the following in two consecutive reporting periods must be reached: 1) a Covid-19 average daily case incidence rate of no greater than 10 cases per 100,000 inhabitants during the most recent two-week period, 2) an average percent of positive Covid-19 test results less than or equal to 7.5 percent, or 3) a fully vaccinated rate at or above 45 percent.
