From ARBA website:

Voluntary herd quarantine in AZ, NM, CO, UT & Western Texas
At this time RHD infections have been identified in New Mexico’s Grant, Dona Ana, Santa Fe, Curry, Chaves, Valencia, Eddy, Torrance, McKinley, and Lincoln counties. Since being identified in NM, there are now confirmed infections in Arizona and western Texas. The RHDv2 virus can also infect native North American species of rabbits as well as domestic rabbits. It is difficult, if not impossible, to manage the spread of the virus in wildlife thus making this outbreak difficult to contain.
Due to the movement restrictions imposed to “Flatten the Curve” with COVID-19, many Americans have been ordered to shelter in place. ARBA chartered clubs have been forced to cancel their sanctioned shows to protect the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Although a tragic circumstance, this will help minimize transmission of RHD within domestic rabbits populations from areas with identified infections
