For the week ending October 18, the CDC Community Level for the county remains at LOW. New COVID-19 hospital admissions per 100,000 increased to 6.7 from the prior week’s value of 3.3, indicating that severe disease is still occurring at modest levels in the four-county Health Services Area (HSA) population. Excluding Rio Arriba, case incidence rates are increasing in all counties from the relative lows seen in September, indicating an increasing COVID-19 burden. Incidence rates in all four HSA counties remain roughly twice as high as those observed during the March-April 2022 low.
