Health facilities across the Navajo Nation are increasing their ability to test for COVID-19 and vaccinate people as the Omicron variant spreads.
Navajo President Jonathan Nez says facilities are also working to test more children at home in January as cases rise.
The tribe on Sunday reported 179 more cases of the coronavirus and no deaths.
The tribe says a full report detailing the total number of cases during the pandemic will be available Tuesday. The known death toll remains at 1,600.
