translated from Spanish: Only one beach is not suitable on this holiday; here the least clean

Before the start of the summer holidays, the Federal Commission for the Protection against Health Risks (Cofepris) released the results of the monitoring of the water of beaches for recreational use.
While only one beach in Mexico exceeded the established limits of 200 NMP/100 ml of enterococci (fecal bacteria), authorities did not complete sampling in four states.
According to Cofepris, Tropical Storm Dolores and Hurricane Enrique prevented water assessment on the 31 beaches in Guerrero, 10 in Jalisco, 13 in Michoacan and 15 in Oaxaca.

In addition, three beaches in Tonalá, Chiapas, do not have available results since “there were technical problems that prevented sampling.”
These are the cleaners in Mexico’s cleaners in the country, according to health officials:

Playa Hermosa, Baja California: It was the only one declared unfit for recreational use, as it tripled the permitted levels of bacteria by recording 786 NMP of enterococci per 100 milliliters.

Playa de Rosarito, Baja California: although it is suitable for recreational use, it recorded a level of 178.
Tecuanillo Beach, Colima: 154 NMP/100 ml
Playa El Real, Colima: 137 NMP/100 ml
Playa Las Lupitas Teacapan, Sinaloa: 128 NMP/100 ml
Playa El Bosque, Tabasco: 105 NMP/100 ml
Playa Las Glorias, Sinaloa: 103 NMP/100 ml
Playa Santa Clara, Yucatán: 100 NMP/100 ml
Playa Bucerías, Nayarit: 95 NMP/100 ml
Playa Regatas, Veracruz: 92 NMP/100 ml
Playa Escolleras, Chiapas: 90 NMP/100 ml

Faced with the uptick in COVID-19 cases, health authorities asked to follow the instructions of local governments, as well as the instructions of health authorities during this holiday period.
Cofepris also warned that the presence of rains can significantly affect the quality of seawater and in the face of recent weather phenomena, “some entities did not achieve their complete sampling or the results obtained in some samples exceeded the limits established by the Secretary of Health.”
