The New Mexico Department of Health, DOH provided COVID-19 tests to 85 residents in the Village of Hatch, at the Hatch Public Health Office this week.
No appointment was needed and New Mexico Department of Health local staff reached out throughout the community in advance, to ensure residents were aware of the test’s availability.
“As we continue to abide by the Public Health Emergency Order, it is reassuring to see active testing throughout the county and the state,” Doña Ana County Dist. 5 Commissioner Manuel Sanchez said. “To continue supporting state-wide efforts to flatten the curve and save more lives, we encourage everyone to stay home and continue to practice social distancing.”
