Torrance County, NM, Coronavirus

Vanity

[ProudFossil]

Torrance County, New Mexico, is now at six individuals with the virus. Does anybody know where they are in the county?

Torrance County is the largest county in New Mexico. It contains several small towns but most is rural in every way. It also has one of the lowest coronavirus percentages in the state, probably due to its large size and sparse population. Today, 4/4, it was announced there are three new cases here. Does anybody have any idea where those unfortunate people are located at and how they got the virus? Thank you.

Where did they get it? Idris Elba? I sure he was shaking hands/taking selfies all over NM before he found out he had it a few weeks ago.

I-40 goes right thru the County and LOTS of people stop at Clines Corners before coming from points east & going to Santa Fe/Taos or Southern Colorado. Seems like someone traveling thru could be the source, if it wasn’t Idris.

No idea about Torrance County cases. Was sad to find out this evening that Lincoln County has its first case, A young female, not a local.

New Mexico Department of Health?

Don’t know where they are, but if I had to
venture a guess, they probably contracted
the virus from Clines Corners. There’s a
truck stop there that sees heavy traffic
along I-40. By the way, Catron county is the
largest in NM.

Most states are not reporting below the county level for HIPPA reasons. Doesn’t really matter where they are in the county. Just be happy that you are in a low incidence area.
