Zihuatanejo has a cumulative total of 1,014 total confirmed cases of Covid-19, 71 of those fatalities, 735 recovered, and 146 currently active. A decrease of -26.76 positive cases per 100,000 inhabitants between the last week and the week before last according to the UNAM.

While there continue to be a few Covidiots, almost everyone here is now pretty good about wearing facemasks including our visitors. It really is heartening to see my neighbors continuing to make such sacrifices as we all try to wait out this cursed pandemia. Public markets and public transport remain risky, but apparently folks who must use those services (as we do) have learned to cope. One thing is for sure, we are all probably the cleanest we've ever been, sometimes having to take full showers two or more times a day after running necessary errands.

Our perfect weather continues, and you can watch it on the webcams on my LOCAL BEACHES page.

Carol's Rice & Beans Program continues being an important if not essential lifeline for people who are still unable to work or to find clients for their services. I can't stress enough what a difference this program is making for hundreds of people including children who otherwise would by now be quite malnourished. Please consider making a donation to this loving cause, if you can.
