Months too late in coming and after killing off 40% of New Mexico's small businesses by Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, the state has finally reopened.
KTSM reported:
SANTA FE, N.M. (KTSM)–New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham’s announced the state of New Mexico could remove remaining pandemic occupancy restrictions on Thursday, including commercial and day-to-day activities and the color-coded county-by-county system.
This comes as the state reached the governor’s goal of 60 percent of eligible residents being fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
Sixty-two percent of eligible New Mexicans have completed their vaccination series as of Tuesday, according to Department of Health data. The agency reports almost 71 percent of eligible New Mexicans have received at least one dose. The state’s vaccination distribution and education efforts will continue.
Effective July 1, all pandemic-related occupancy restrictions on all forms of commercial activity have been lifted.
All businesses across the state may once again operate at 100 percent of maximum capacity. In addition, all limitations on mass gatherings are gone; businesses, large events and organizations may operate at 100 percent of maximum capacity, whether indoor or outdoor.
We're now at this point thanks to the vaccines made possible by the Trump Administration, not by anything good the governor has done.
