SANTA FE – New Mexico has lost ground in its efforts to involve the spread of COVID-19, while recently reported infections reached a record 488.
Three more pandemic deaths also occurred Friday through state fitness officials, with more than 900 deaths.
On Twitter, Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham declared the new milestone in daily infections and suggested that citizens re-engage to prevent the spread of the pandemic.
“I know we’re tired. I know we’re frustrated, ” he said. ” But COVID-19 is real. And no one’s life is risk. “

Bernalillo County, with the most populous urban domain in the state, accounted for 135 new cases, while Doa Ana had 81, and Lea and Chaves counties combined had 77 new cases.
Infection rates and state positivity for the spread of the virus are expanding as Lujan Grisham’s administration stays out of a public order of fitness that demands masks in public, prohibits meetings of more than 10 people, and limits many companies to 25% occupancy.
