“Maintaining health and governance in the face of the biggest crisis of our time is the real challenge in the weeks and months to come. Moving forward the prevention stages means not waiting for the increase in contagion to set the pace of actions, but thereby reducing the number of contagions. Every life is valuable and counts beyond simple statistics,” said the building.
“That is why today we call on all the patzcuarenses who are in a chance to do so, to help us contain the social crisis already witnessed by the economic inactivity of many families, caused by the house shelter that is required to avoid spreading and infecting our relatives of COVID-19,” said Víctor Baez. “We all have a neighbor, a family member, or we know of someone who already has complications to feed and feed their family, that’s why we call everyone’s social solidarity.”
“The Federal Government’s Ministry of Health has been clear in noting that the largest contagion cup will be recorded during the months of May and June. This slow, silent and invisible form of contagion, which will continue to increase for the remaining April 15 days and with the greatest acceleration in May and June, adds greater difficulty in getting citizens of the municipal head and communities to understand that staying at home is for their own good and that of their families, and at the same time it is the only way that this crisis will not be extended any longer.”

After the third phase, Victor Báez explained that the delivery of pantries will be carried out according to the social standards that exist, to ensure that the financial supports reach the families who already have a government support to help them to pale the crisis to come.

Restaurants should soon close their doors and add the on-site service carefully all hygiene measures. “This is a health emergency, a crisis that no one expected, so it’s time to take care of all our creativity, because our biological and economic survival is at stake,” he said.
Alcohol sales will be restricted
