60+ asked to limit movement (Mexico)

[navegator]

The Mexican government is asking persons 60 years and over to limit the time out among crowds, it is voluntary for the time being and they are suggesting that if need be a younger family member help them with purchases, my neisse has offered to get the shopping done for my sister in law and I, now I have to volunteer looking after my neisse's diaper terrorist and for those of you who do not have family available you might get a neighbor, the lady that helps with the cleaning or pay someone if the situation worsens.

Let us do our part to help this situation, drink lots of tequila with beer, you will forget who you are, where you are and best of all what you have!----- just kidding lets cooperate.

Senor: MEXICOWANDERER saludos I will be bold and correct the Conatcto

It needs to say

VOY A CONTACTAR A LA SECRETARIA DE TURISMO Y SALUD

And it is easy to say in Spanish even with a very thick accent in gringo-lingo

That will be better understood by the cops, being from the Tercera edad I have to stay home, how are you doing? I have fun with some of the answers that I give, play of words and so forth and lots of Tequila zipped,

Traffic in Mexico City is light, the terrorist that go to school are all home so no idiot mothers on the phone trying to run you down even when you are on the side walk, the familia and I have decided that we will drink a cup of red wine with lunch on Sundays until this is over.

Espero que estes bien te voy a mandar un mensaje.

Just a heads up folks, I don't live in MX and I'm pretty agnostic about their government workings (meaning I don't have a favorite or least favorite leader), but the rules about politics still apply here, even when it comes to foreign politics.

Thanks,
Dave

Tip for non spanish speakers in the rare event a corrupt cop tries extortion over non essential travel. Write the following cognates down.

CONTACO SECRETARIs yTURISIMO Y SECTOR SALUD.

Garlic for a vampire.

Rare 100% agreement with QTLA9111 🙂

Furthermore when nonchalant AMLO gets nailed it's going to weaken his presidency

Geez the is no more purifying iodine, Cloroquine sulfate, plaquenil, masks, and toilet paper. Anyone who thinks the Mexican consumer is different than the American consumer is in for a surprise.

Good luck to all of our brothers and sisters in Mexico. I hope you all stay well.

Low reporting of cases only because they are now doing something about it. Relative in hospital now for eight weeks and for the first time they are telling us, "starting Monday, there will be no visitations and all permissible entries will require hand washing, masks and temperature readings.

What? Three weeks behind the rest of the world?

The bomb is coming in the next 10 days.

[navegator]

As of this morning 3/20/2020 there are only 164 confirmed cases and 448 suspect, I guess the Tequila and Coronitas are working, and all of those that tested positive were in Italy or Spain and came home so we shall see what happens in the next weeks, I pray that all stay safe and healthy.

Today there will be the announcement that the Mexican/US border will be closed to all non necessary travel. We are starting to close the house and packing the Motorhome. Had planned on leaving Monday morning. Could be stuck here until "who knows when".

It's a mess. We are about three weeks behind all other countries and our illustrious Mexican president had the "ganas" to pull amulets for good luck, out of his wallet the other day on his daily 2-hour morning diatribe.

Watching the Secretario de Salud yesterday, it is obvious he is not confident in his words and looked extremely nervous and pressured to speak.

I'm 59 and my ability to move is already limited.

[navegator]

No! I am pretty young I'm only 37 and of course being dyslexic I have to stay home the family does not let go out and play on the streets, I have fun with the cats and the laser thermometer, I have plenty of wood for the construction that I am doing, still need to fabricate the main bathroom furniture and tons of projects, so I will stay home.

All of you out there be careful and do not worry to much about the hand sanitizer's, alcohol and some cream will work, of course the alcohol is internal, un Tequilita por favor con una Coronita and soap and water is the best!
Do take care and we will be in touch.

Salud y bien estar para todos
