Grant County and Silver City seem to be doing rather well. NM may be about to level off. The big caveat is that the omicron variant is in AZ, CO, and TX. That means NM will detect omicron soon. Omicron is more contagious than the current delta variant. However omicron so far has been less serious albeit on low case numbers. Given the probable arrival of omicron in NM, and given the public holidays in the next three weeks, please take care. We had a bump after Thanksgiving but luckily cases settled back down in Grant County and Silver City.
