Confirmed infections statewide in New Mexico climbed to 3,411 on Thursday.

There were 11 new fatalities that brought the overall death toll to 123.

U.S. health officials say coronavirus infections are beginning a renewed surge on the Navajo Nation and bordering areas in northwest New Mexico  that may peak around May 10.

For most people, the new coronavirus causes mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough that clear up in two to three weeks.

For some, especially older adults and people with existing health problems, it can cause more severe illness, including pneumonia, and death.

The vast majority of people recover.
