ALBUQUERQUE – The New Mexico National Guard and Civil Air Patrol have logged more than 1.6 million miles over the past year as part of the state’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, and officials say the work is not over as they try to get more people vaccinated.
New Mexico on Monday made all residents 16 and older eligible for the vaccine as states look to expand distribution beyond health care workers and other priority groups to meet an April 19 deadline from the Biden administration. About 30% of New Mexico’s eligible population already is fully vaccinated, and half of the population has received a first shot, according to the latest state data.
