Daily case counts and test numbers are raw data based on information the state receives today - meaning data that has not yet been scrutinized to identify potential duplicates or late-arriving positives or negatives. By contrast, the Red Yellow Green county-level analysis provides a highly accurate picture for a two-week period of time.
Previously reported numbers included one case that was identified as a duplicate in San Miguel County—this has been corrected. After further investigation, three cases were added back to Otero County and one case was added back to Torrance County.
