Hi Mesilla Valley Friends, Help us help our Las Cruces community homeless this winter. Winter is here and will be getting colder and colder until we have freezing days and nights for extended weeks at a time. OPERATION HEAT will provide warm jackets and hats, gloves, and sleeping bags to those people stuck on the streets in Las Cruces. We care about our less fortunate people struggling in life and don't want them to freeze and suffer. they are human beings. Please consider giving something. As a community all giving a little, we can solve the challenges that face every community. Thank you so much. God Bless you all.

The agency reports that given the infectious nature of the virus it is likely other residents are infected but yet to be tested or confirmed positive. To that end, all New Mexicans have been instructed to stay home except for outings absolutely necessary for health, safety and welfare. These additional restrictions have been enacted to aggressively minimize person-to-person contact and ensure spread is mitigated. New Mexicans are strongly urged to limit travel to only what is necessary for health, safety and welfare. The New Mexico Department of Health has active investigations into the positive patients, which includes contact-tracing and swabs of symptomatic individuals who have had contact with the positive cases. Every New Mexican must work together to stem the spread of COVID-19. Stay home, especially if you are sick. Wear a mask or face covering when in public and around others. New Mexicans who report symptoms of COVID-19 infection, such as fever, cough, shortness of breath, chills, repeated shaking with chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, diarrhea, and/or loss of taste or smell should call their health care provider or the NMDOH COVID-19 hotline immediately (1-855-600-3453). The Department of Health strongly encourages the following groups to get tested: Symptomatic people displaying the COVID-19 symptoms of fever, cough, shortness of breath, chills, repeated shaking with chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, diarrhea, and/or loss of taste or smell; Asymptomatic people who are close contacts or household members of people in their infectious period who have already tested positive for the coronavirus; Asymptomatic people who live or work in congregate settings such as long-term care facilities and group homes; Patients who are scheduled for surgery and whose provider has advised them to get tested before the procedure. New Mexicans who have non-health-related questions or concerns can also call 833-551-0518 or visit newmexico.gov, which is being updated regularly as a one-stop source for information for families, workers and others affected by and seeking more information about COVID-19. ###
