As of today, since April 18, 2020 Zihuatanejo has registered a cumulative total of 1,824 confirmed cases of Covid-19 (19 more than yesterday), 143 that have resulted in fatalities, 45 that are currently active, and approximately 1,511 that have recovered. The usual after-weekend rebound as tests come back that were sent off last week. The number of active cases is the one I keep my eye on. Even if it's 3 times the official number, I'd say we're still good. Especially considering the number of bars operating apparently without any restrictions or vigilance regarding their clients. I expect the local number to continue coming down from the holiday spike. Especially considering we're apparently receiving infected people from La Unión as well as the sierra of Zihuatanejo and surrounding municipios. Petatlán also finally registered a small spike with currently 9 active cases.

I regret our paradise seems to be getting paved over and its iconic scenery lost to heavy machinery and selfish aspirations. For evil to win it's only necessary for good people to do nothing. And evil seems to be gaining the edge in spite of those of us trying to do something good. It's hard for nature to compete with flashy gadgets and social media, I suppose. People are, after all, just clever brute animals. Some more so than others.

An iconic sight we shall never see complete again.
