According to this local report:
"A 'delta wave' prompted by a contagious variant of the virus has caused new cases statewide to reach a six-month high and generated debate about vaccine and face mask mandates."
The time for debate is over. Our current public health order still only allows the vaccinated to go mask-free in public. And we know that a lot of the unvaccinated, including anti-vaxxers, are also going mask-free in public, especially dangerous indoors because of the increased Delta spread. The current Order "strongly recommends" compliance with the current CDC guidelines for everyone to mask indoors in public places. As anyone can plainly see, hardly anyone is following this recommendation, including the unvaccinated who are spreading Delta. The so-called 'honor' system is a joke and contributing to our increasing transmission.
Therefore we must all demand a state-wide indoor public mask mandate. Please do so at this email address for the assistant to Dr. Collins, NMDOH Cabinet Secretary: vicky.deagueroz@state.nm.us. Also please continue to report any violations of the current health order to the NMDOH: covid.enforcement@state.nm.us
