How dare you suggest that I made any sort of joke about anyone's death? You are just evil! I've been surrounded by death and dying for the past month, and care only about stopping this horror. How dare you?

You're "no one else's keeper"? Everything is fine because YOU are still healthy? You portray yourself as caring about your fellow citizens but then you admit the truth - incredibly selfish and interested only in your own well-being. You had a chance, and a voice, to make a big difference in Zihuatanejo. But you opted not to do it. Hmm.. older white male who tells everyone else what to do but is actually only interested in himself and his own opinions, calls any information that he doesn't like "fake news", and lashes out at foreigners at every opportunity.....you sound a lot like someone who also had a chance to make a difference and didn't, but he's in the U.S. I hope you both stay healthy.

Yes, you joked. Even misspelled "condolencias". A silly shame you didn't even bother to reread what you wrote.

Thanks for the rant. I always get a chuckle when folks who don't know me pretend they do. Yeah, how very "selfish" of me for telling folks to listen to OUR Mexican authorities and not oddball foreigners with lordknowswhat issues.

If Wisconsin people know more about this and I am mistaken, I will stand corrected. But I hope the cold, wet, COVID infected voters of Wisconsin remember this come November.

Maybe they see knowledgable locals out on the streets taking pictures and think everything is ok.

Hey, at least our state officials aren’t cruel enough to hold elections during a public health emergency. Folks from Wisconsin should be suing the Republican Party and the State Supreme Court Justices who voted in favor of countermanding a lawful order by the state executive.

The republicans and trump just lost Wisconsin in November.

Just left Puerto Vallarta Sunday.. They have been accepting cruise ships for the last two to three weeks on humanitarian grounds. At first it was for stranded passengers who were bused from the ship straight to airplane so not to infect the terminal. Later they had up to seven ships just sitting him the harbour allowing re stocking of supplies and let the crews rest after being at sea for 25-30 days. They would leave after 2=3 days of R and R. No other country would accept them...

¡VIVA MÉXICO!

Magical thinking (and political diatribes against a foreing government0 do not stop a viral epidemic. You had a chance to make it different. Condoloncías a mis seres queridos en Zihuatanejo!

Magical thinking? That seems to be the purview of your narcissistic U.S. president and his ass-kissing loyalists. Political diatribes? Sorry old son, if you think pointing out ugly facts about the U.S. government's erratic bizarro and corrupt behavior is a political diatribe, you have a different definition of politics than the rest of us.

"You had a chance to make it different"
Poor imprecise English. I and my family are following the recommendations of our Secretaría de Salud and we remain healthy. But I am neither the president, emperor, god, tooth fairy nor anyone else's keeper. If you're referring to the second person plural, our government has excelled in slowing the virus much better than yours, so your comment is rather silly.

I used to think you meant well, but making jokes about death even in Mexico is never funny and is always in poor taste. Especially now.

Two entirely different issues, I am aware of that.

I made no mention neither in an EMail nor here on Z board, of any cruise ship incident.
The board Users can decide for themselves whether or not it is USA bashing.
I have NO opinion on it whatsoever.

And no, it isn't USA bashing when the U.S. president himself keeps a cruise ship with sick and dying people aboard offshore for days to keep the numbers down because all he can think about is himself and his damn re-election to try to stay out of jail and to keep using the office for personal profit because the Republicans gave him a blank check.

We had to stop in Tepic, the capital of Nayarit two years ago on Good Friday. Thought we could get a little body work done. Nope, not until the Tuesday after Easter. OK, it's a beautiful city. Decided to go to their great grocery stores and live high on the hog during this time. Nope. Not only was the city almost completely empty, but the stores had no bakery items, no deli items, just very basic non fresh food. The only place with people was the Burger King, us too.

Cross all of our fingers that this doesn't happen this year. Sad, but important.

The number of cases and deaths due to COVID119 will, maybe never be known. Even in the so called first world countries the stats are questionable at best, even the governments admit this..

Just think of the numbers of deaths and cases due to COVID19 that are happening right now in the homes of the poor that will never be investigated. Get real

Take it up with the doctors who ought to know. I'm confident in my sources. If anyone had died of the virus here it would be reported because the body can't just be tossed in a barranca like chicken bones, poor or not. No one is trying to hide the truth here. This is not the USA.

Just a reminder, ´cause it´s easy to forget routine things these days, that Thursday and Friday are STAT holidays. Even places still open might not be on those days.
