Confirmed COVID-19 cases in NM cross 9000, deaths reach 400 - New Mexico Political Report

On Monday, the New Mexico Department of Health announced 124 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 and four additional deaths.

The state of New Mexico now has 9,062 confirmed cases of COVID-19 since the beginning of the pandemic and 400 deaths related to the disease.

Among the newly reported cases, more than half came from the two hardest-hit counties, McKinley and San Juan. 

All four of the newly announced deaths also came from those two counties.

DOH provided some details on each case, but did not disclose which specific underlying condition the deceased had.

  • A male in his 60s from McKinley County who was hospitalized and had underlying conditions.
  • A second male in his 60s from McKinley County who was hospitalized.
  • A female in her 70s from McKinley County who was hospitalized and had underlying conditions.
  • A male in his 30s from San Juan County.

The state said that 183 individuals are currently hospitalized for COVID-19, an increase of six cases over Sunday’s announcement. These numbers could include those who tested positive in other states and are now hospitalized in New Mexico, but would not include those who tested positive in New Mexico and are now hospitalized in other states.

Health officials also said that 3,380 cases are now designated as recovered, an increase of 73 cases over Sunday.
