From January 20, 2023 post.

For the week ending January 18, the Community Level remained at LOW for Los Alamos County, as it did for the three other counties (Taos, Rio Arriba, Santa Fe) which collectively comprise the regional Health Services Area (HSA) over which CDC hospitalization metrics are calculated. Total reported cases in the county have remained under 10 for the past two weeks following a small post-holiday rise in cases. Reported case incidence rates in all four counties comprising the HSA are at 9-month minimum, well below CDC threshold criteria. NMDOH/CDC reported no new COVID-19 hospital admissions or deaths in the county for the week ending January 18. The overall HSA hospitalization rate did increase week-to-week from 2.9 to 5.8 new admissions per 100,000 due to an increase in hospitalizations within the other three HSA counties.
