Despertando Zih Turismo

/05/2020

My point was:
IF I was a traveler, for ME PERSONALLY, I would not travel to México until as I said, the "Green Light" (or whatever it's called) is given, and all phases (1, 2, or 3) are "off the radar", and la "nueva realidad " / normalidad is set and underway, and things are "good to go".

Others, may take your suggestion, and choose to travel & accept the risk that implies, and hope/assume that they will be safe exercising the recommended precautions as instructed by Dr. López-Gatel and the SSA.

Again, for me, e.g. under the current Fase 3/Semáforo ROJO situation, IF I was considering travelling into México for a vacation, it's a risk that is not necessary, & I would not take it. For the time being, that would be my advice.

Re:

You appear to have missed the point that the risk is not to the tourists but to the locals. We have 18 confirmed cases here as far as I know. Everyone coming here from any northern or inland cities is coming from a place with a higher level of contagion. The Semáforo Rojo designation is not an indicator of the danger to tourists visiting the Zihuatanejo region, and you appear to be using it in a manner in which it was not intended, something I believe is an unhelpful and incorrect signal to give to potential visitors.

But thank you for your opinion.

NO, I did NOT "miss the point".
I completely understand about the risks to locals &/or visitors/tourists/vacationers.

Whether or not....
"The Semáforo Rojo designation is not an indicator of the danger to tourists visiting the Zihuatanejo region"....
If I was a vacationer contemplating a trip to ANYWHERE IN MEXICO, I simply am not comfortable with the fact that designation is in place, it just doesn't sit well with me.

While here in Z, the cases are relatively low in comparison to many other Mexican cities, nevertheless, GUERRERO is among the many states on the Semáforo Rojo illustration, and Zihuatanejo is in GRO.
From what I can see, and correct me IF I am wrong, is that the illustration does not make any city-by-city distinctions as to the level of the problem in a particular town or city in any Entidad Federativa, again being aware that it does vary from one extreme to another depending on which city or town it is.

My point is a personal observation/preference, and not intended to be helpful or "unhelpful" as accused.
It's just what I consider to be prudent to protect my health.
Again, if I was going to Mexico for a vacation, I would postpone that travel until all phases of the contingencia are gone, and things are "good to go", no worries.

If others see my personal preference to be imprudent or wrong as you seem to do, so be it. We'll have to "agree to disagree".

I think it is wise to seek outside information. The Pictures and film being shown on the worldwide press seem to indicate that Mexico's numbers are being suppressed in an attempt to lure tourists back. With Tourism the second largest part of the entire economy it's important to keep a stiff upper lip, that said the smokestacks burning 24/7 and thousands of new grave sites as well as a 300 % increase in death certificates seems to show ample evidence the Mexican Government is not being truthful about the Pandemic.

Watching people complaining about the stench of death from the thousands of unburried and uncreamated bodies as well as the pictures of the bodys stacked up at Mexican creamatoriums seems to back you that Mexico is fudging its numbers to get the economy up and going.

I think your going to see more people fleeing than returning anytime soon.

Question the Govt, no matter what govt.
