Yes, they do have Sheriffs. A substantial portion of New Mexico is Republican and Western Cowboy freedom aligned. They open carry and children drive from 8 or 9 years old on ranches. They are ready to open. As my nephew said they have not really been doing this social distancing. They are outside playing on four-wheelers and enjoying the outdoors.
It doesn’t affect kids anyway. No need to social distance for themselves. It’s bringing the bug home to grandma but with the 3 drug cocktail being available to cure it most the time; I don’t see a problem.
