I ordered from them and loved the food, thought it was some of the best I've had in this area. Care was taken with everything.
Eduardo did say they would like orders in advance, because they are getting more order than they can handle. So I plan to order on Wednesday. I would cut them some slack at this point as they start up and figure out how run their business.

I have a question about Multiva ATM s can you take 10,000 pesos in one transaction or do you have to do two 5,000. I have been using CI Banco and get 9,000 in one. But lately there machines were not working and I can walk to Multiva ...
I have taken 12,000 out of Multiva on a foreign credit card recently. Keep it underneath your foreign card limit after the conversion.

I visit friends in the area and had to ask what was up with the racket. Feel sorry for you folks that are permanently near it. I live on a street with over 50 dogs in a two block area. House dogs, not kenneled, and it's nothing like that.

The WHO has walked back that quote above from Monday that asymptomatic carriers don't spread Covid 19. There's a big breaking article in WaPo, and I get a lovely paywall there so that's out as a source. . KTLA.com:
“What I was referring to yesterday in the press conference were very few studies — some two or three studies that had been published that actually try to follow asymptomatic cases, so people who are infected, over time, and then look at all of their contacts and see how many additional people were infected,” Van Kerkhove said.
“And that’s a very small subset of studies. So I was responding to a question at the press conference. I wasn’t stating a policy of WHO or anything like that,” she said. “Because this is a major unknown, because there are so many unknowns around this, some modeling groups have tried to estimate what is the proportion of asymptomatic people that may transmit.”

This link is to a story that ran on Michigan Live. They got four experts on infectious disease to rank 36 different activities as to the level of safety from covid-19 and some things you might consider before engaging in them. The experts didn't always agree on their threat rankings, so the rankings were averaged and disagreements noted. I found it very useful, since most of the activities are similar to what expats might consider here at Lakeside.
Excellent resource for evaluating risk. Thanks for posting.

Not sure where I saw this reply so maybe not confirmed news:
Dear Mr. Mayor
We business owners here at Lake Chapala respectfully ask that you ignore the wishes of a few non-citizens who seem to only worry about themselves. They want to put a fence around this place and thus starve us to death in the name of security. They don't like our clients from Guadalajara but they don't wish to make up the revenue we lose by not serving them. Yes, a few are actually citizens but the vast majority are just guests in our proud country. If it is legal to keep non-residents out we will abide by that but then request you see that the rule is strictly enforced. As of now it is a joke but our incomes are dangerously low and some of us will be forced out of business.
Thank you and we promise to plant some trees when this is all over.
You're not sure where you saw it, but you'll post it here as if it's legit?
Why don't you guys make a section called Political Musings or something along those lines and stop with the contortions, pretending that what you say isn't political, but anyone disagreeing with you is.

Death rate is higher in younger people in emerging countries.
"A closer look at the data raises questions about the widely held idea that COVID-19 is mainly dangerous for the elderly.
Of Brazil's victims, 69 percent were aged 60 or older, compared with 95 percent in Spain and Italy, according to official statistics."

I've had the chicken, BBQ and jerk. Excellent and so were the sides. Delivery was prompt. Recommended.

One of the issues with herd immunity theory is that infection survivors must be immune to reoccurrence of the virus. This is not confirmed with corona virus.
"After testing different scenarios, the Harvard group concluded that their projections of how many people end up getting covid-19 in the coming years depended “most crucially” on “the extent of population immunity, whether immunity wanes, and at what rate.” In other words, the critical factor in projecting the path of the outbreak is also a total unknown."

Oh, boy, here we go....
Naw. It's okay, Rick. I'm good. I'm figuring out what media is censoring the news. Making a list for myself. So I don't get misled.
To be thorough, I'm starting at the bottom. Paint chips. Maybe oil paints.
Edit: Bad choice to start. Too granular. A bit boring. But cleared as misleading media to my satisfaction. Well, I wasn't mislead, YMMV.
I'm done with the vetting of media though. My bad. I don't have the patience. I'll just blunder around, evaluating media as it pops up.

MC, seriously? "Americans and Europeans have had enough of this failed policy". Lots of polls available when you google. This one 87% of Americans support stay at home. I could have chose from 3 others with the same results. There is a tiny minority of protesters in the US. Certain political interests and media are trying to make them look mainstream. Not even close.

I do understand that the world is trying to grapple with these questions.
The lock down is not endless. Authorities everywhere are trying to save lives based on the best information they can get at the moment. https://www.businessinsider.com/coronavirus-lockdowns-successful-evidence-from-around-the-world-2020-4?r=MX&IR=T

This is good, balanced info to add to Ian's point. It was complied by researchers. They add cardio as part of prep also, so your entire system is stronger, better able to fight for you.

Two doctors with sketchy data aren't equal to the other side of the question. This goes through the data, from a left position given the source. https://www.alternet.org/2020/04/a-pair-of-doctors-just-proved-that-medical-training-doesnt-keep-you-from-being-amazingly-ignorant/
The issue has been politicized based on its nature. Also it is being discussed as such here. I thought politics where verboten on this board. Why the exception for this issue?

Chris Hayes on MSNBC spent a segment on these guys tonight (Tuesday). He had epidemiologists on who did refute their position and questioned their integrity. The show will repeat tonight if anyone is interested.

It sounds crazy to expats, living here as senor singles or in couples. It might not be a hardship at all for large extended Mexican families. All the basic supply issues would generally be easily handled by the younger generations.

What a great find, Ferret. I recognized his name and logo from the "Moving Art" series on Netflix. It is this wonderful cinematography, mostly or all landscapes and he matches it with different musicians and types of music. There is no spoken word, so it's not this type of meditation, but beautiful and calming.

Superlake has also tucked away reasonably priced breakfast cereals. The 200p imports are where they always were. Lower priced Mexican brands are at the end of the aisle and where the cheaper cookies used to be in the corner.

I do not fear death, what I fear is the process of dying. Even worse, is dying when you are in basically good health.
The silver lining: If we die of a contagious illness, we won't be in good health. We might be dead, but our train of logic will be impeccable.
