Guerrero's state health authorities report there are currently 499 active cases of Covid-19 in Zihuatanejo, 12 in Petatlán and 6 in La Unión. Amazingly, Acapulco is registering today about as many active cases as Zihuatanejo had yesterday. Mind boggling. But across the nation in general it looks like the latest omicron wave isn't a wave but rather a spike like a church steeple and we appear to be on the back side of it. We'll know for sure soon enough. This is what was predicted by our health authorities.

Yesterday's final day of vaccinations for those 60 and over wasn't near as crowded as previous days. Local health workers are next up to get booster shots. Then I expect it will be the 40 and 50añeros.

Today was a day of recovery and rest from the effects of the AstraZeneca vaccine yesterday. Spent the night with a fever but no sweating, and I felt too lethargic most of the day to work so I just rested. But isn't that what Saturdays are for?

Although the recorded temp on the daily forecast doesn't show it, it got fairly cool last night, 20° or 19°C. Nothing like the blizzard with hurricane-like winds my cousins in Massachusetts were going through, but nipper for us. Still no snow in our forecast, but sleeping under a sheet was necessary last night.

The other night around 2:30AM there was an impromptu party in the alleyway that used to be a garden across the street from our home, so I called Seguridad Pública to report it, not expecting any actual response, but to my surprise they arrived within 15 minutes and politely broke up the party. I was impressed. The lesson being not to bother with the local police but to call Seguridad Pública instead. You can find their number and other helpful numbers on my Telephone Info page.
