As of June 2020, the federal government of Mexico has opened air journeys for the trip and different functions to the nation regardless of COVID-19 nonetheless having a grip on the world. Airways are bringing vacationers and vacationers for different functions equivalent to enterprise, to quite a lot of locations, specifically seaside resorts equivalent to Huatulco, the Mayan Riviera, Playa del Carmen, Cancun, and the remainder. What is the reasoning, and is it sensible for non-Mexicans to now go to the nation?
Whereas we do not know all the pieces about coronavirus, we will safely assume that folks with COVID-19 could also be asymptomatic (i.e. regular temperature), and nonetheless unfold it. For current functions let’s consult with Individuals eager to get away to their favorite Mexican vacation spot throughout the summertime of 2020. It’s urged that one motive the American authorities is allowing worldwide journey is that upon return it may well nonetheless quarantine its residents and in any other case residents. As well as, if an American will get sick whereas overseas, there will not be a burden on the American healthcare system as a result of the particular person shall be getting remedy overseas, not being permitted to hop on an airplane. So it is fantastic for the American authorities to undertake this stance.
For the Mexican authorities, it helps tax income if Individuals now trip to resorts. And sure, it additionally assists residents equivalent to lodge chambermaids and restaurant and bar employees who in any other case wouldn’t have work or revenue. However what in regards to the traveler who has the virus and arrives at the resort? She or he can infect locals.
Our Mexican healthcare system is already overburdened coping with its personal residents and authorized residents. As of mid-June, half of the 32 states are nonetheless both crimson or orange mild categorized. We do not want Individuals (or guests from different international locations) exacerbating the scenario. by both infecting Mexicans, or changing into symptomatic themselves. Moreover, as a common rule Mexicans, specifically, villagers, are usually not as aware as city Individuals by way of carrying masks and social distancing. Guests are thus extra prone to grow to be contaminated with COVID-19 visiting Mexican than in the event that they keep residence. Do you need to be caught in a Mexican well being clinic or hospital? Is it truthful to the locals and their healthcare system?
Each day newspaper in Oaxaca, the state by which the seaside resort is situated, reported on June 19, 2020, that the loss of life toll from COVID-19 was then 420. Seventy-seven of these deaths had occurred over the earlier 4 days! It additionally reported that on in style downtown avenue within the state capital, Las Casas, merchandising stalls had returned to the roadside after a short hiatus, with social distancing not being practiced. When it comes to face coverings, maybe half the passersby are abiding by that advice.
You may assume that mendacity on a seaside shall be very completely different and that it is easy to do social distancing. However, take into consideration the lady who approaches you with trinkets and tacos. Do you need to infect her? Would you like her to contaminate you?
For vacationing, wait till Mexico provides the inexperienced mild. For enterprise functions, except the journey is pressing and have to be taken now, equally wait. It is the proper factor to do, for yourself, and for the individuals of Mexico.
