I don't know why it's taken everyone else so long to see this

To paraphrase someone, "It's hard to get an official to understand something when his paycheck depends on him NOT understanding it."

As of today, since April 18, 2020 Zihuatanejo has registered a cumulative total of 2,250 confirmed cases of Covid-19 (2 more than yesterday), 182 that have resulted in fatalities, 29 that are currently active, and approximately 1,894 that have recovered. Still no evidence of a spike from the first part of the Semana Santa vacation period.

It seems like local hotel and tourist services associations are only just now "getting it" that the exclusively All-Included model by the hotels in Ixtapa's "Zona Hotelera I" is killing the local economy, a fact that has been apparent in Ixtapa's shopping centers and that I've also noticed in Zihuatanejo for at least the past 15 years or so, and I've mentioned it often. I don't know why it's taken everyone else so long to see this, but today local tourism associations and related services are finally saying this publicly: that the past Semana Santa vacation period was a major disappointment for most local businesses because the tourists coming to Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo didn't hardly buy anything and barely spent any money here. Well no shit, Sherlock! That's why I work so hard at what I do.

The final day of Covid-19 vaccinations went smoothly in all 3 vaccination centers. If I understood the numbers correctly, it appears they used all but about 2 doses.

Colorful, in an odd almost cartoonish sort of way.
