New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham invoked the state's Riot Control Act on Friday to essentially lock down the city of Gallup after its mayor requested that she do so on Thursday. Under the act, all roads leading into Gallup are now closed off "to mitigate the uninhibited spread of COVID-19 in that city."
"Effective at 12 p.m., May 1, all roads into Gallup are closed. Businesses in the city of Gallup will close from 5 p.m. through 8 a.m. Vehicles may only have a maximum of two individuals. Residents of the city should remain at home except for emergency outings and those essential for health, safety and welfare," Grisham's office said in a press release.
Gallup, a city of nearly 22,000 people about 100 miles west of Albuquerque, has been particularly affected by the coronavirus. As of Friday, McKinley County, where Gallup is located, had 1,027 confirmed cases and 19 deaths, according to the New Mexico Department of Health. The county now has the highest number of cases in all of New Mexico, which has 3,411 cases in total.
According to Grisham's press release, McKinley County has "more than 30 percent of the state's total positive COVID-19 cases and the most positive cases in the entire state, outstripping even far more populous counties."
"Its infection trend has shown no sign of flattening," the release said. "The county has reported an additional 207 positive cases in the last two days alone, more than every other county in the state has reported total over the length of the pandemic save three." MORE AT LINK

“WTF is up with these SHE-NAZI Governors???”
Repeal the 19th!
Grisham a Whitmer wannabe.
“Well... HEY HADJI... bugger right off! “
Hindu, NOT Hadji! It’s OK. Go sit down Humble.
Navajos ought to turn a skin walker loose on Grisham.
Right along Route 66 if I remember the song correctly. But by all means, shut it down for less than 1%.
Racist much?
They closed roads in? Is there some outside source bringing infection ?
I’ll defend him. He’s not an idiot. He’s just trolling.
Guess we don’t agree. I take commentary where I find it and it doesn’t mean I endorse everything - there were others commenting on the same data, like Gateway Pundit but their comentary was interspersed among so many advertisements and hyperlinks, Dinesh’s was easy. Tomato, Tomahto
Somebody at the CDC is going to get in trouble over this. Maybe end up cleaning spill in the Smallpox lab, or doing onsite investigations of deadly diseases in Africa. Telling the truth and embarassing the deep state isn’t a safe thing to do.
Anyone who knows me will vehemently tell you that I will never scream "racist" without ample cause; but to ignore Humblegunner's smear represents to me one step beyond what I'm willing to tolerate!
No, dammit, the best defense against this virus is Dr. Zelenko's Protocol:
1. Any patient with shortness of breath regardless of age is treated.
2. Any patient in the high-risk category even with just mild symptoms is treated.
3. Young, healthy and low risk patients even with symptoms are not treated (unless their circumstances change and they fall into category 1 or 2).
Out-patient treatment regimen is as follows:
1. Hydroxychloroquine 200mg twice a day for 5 days
2. Azithromycin 500mg once a day for 5 days
3. Zinc sulfate 220mg once a day for 5 days
what a fascinating tweet.
FR is hurtling for donations and you’re still acting like an a-hole.
People getting Sick is not a Riot
not surprising (at least to me), but fascinating.
people should look at the per state data too. and the trend and peak week as well.
I'd be concerned.
These people need the HCQ/Zinc/Zpack, pronto.
