It says Sonoyta can come in with proof they live in Sonoyta for all kinds of essential activities as of now. July 15th for friends, family, and visitors. Aug 1st to take down sanitary filter.

Not trying to argue with you just trying to clarify the info.
Thank you I could not decipher this press release, whoever put it out made sure you needed a degree to make it out.

I have been in Penasco over 20 yrs. I really need to go down to Bella and do some work on my condo. A client told my husband that if you are over 65 you can't get into Penasco. I looked in the mirror and yes we are both over 65. Also I always bring my dog.. He was told the rules change daily.

For what it's worth Mary, my Medicare card arrived in the mail this week.

No way I feel or look that old. It's just a number. 65 is the new 40! Now if I could just convince my arthritic knees of that... too much time hitting the deck on my knees to unhook fish.

Everything I have read says this is recommended not enforced (Preferably no travel with minors under 12, or adults over 65 (not obligatory). I have seen signs posted if over 65 you can shop from 8 to 11 am otherwise call them and they will come outside to you. Last I heard Walmart was not letting children in or adults over 65. I have not seen any posts of people being turned back from sanitary filter either. Lots of people have posted they brought their dogs with no problems thru the sanitary filter.

Can anyone tell me what this "Starting the 15th" ostensibly explained below, means in terms of permanent residents, homeowners who have not passed the barrier in either direction since it was established. ? What would you think are 'previously established health measures."? there have been so many modifications over the past months I am totally confused. I got the bit about the Diagnostic Equipment not being available by July 15 you are in the same circumstance you have been since the start of this soup sandwich, you cannot do anything ! Correct ?? I am only concerned about crossing the barrier and returning in a day or so. How do you spell gobblydegook??
I own property here, have the OOMAPAS reciept and will have an FMT. Anyone know who I can have a fluent Spanish speaker call?

Roberto, I read the RP360 and a translated version of the official statement, here is what I got out of it, I'm still really confused.

July 15th Non Res owners, family and friends can come down, but are they required to get a rapid Covid test to be allowed in?
Either in the states or Mexico, will the check points even recognize the US test results?

Is that the diagnostic testing equipment they are waiting on? There will be a health screening check point in Sonoyta?
Also gathered Aug 1st may be the magical day when all the health screening will be taken down??
The beaches being opened maybe or maybe not?.

This was the protocol to have in place:

a) If any of the passengers has a high temperature, a second test will be done with a digital thermometer. If the person has a temperature less than 37.5ºC (normal body temperature), they will all be given entry to the city.
b) In case this second test indicates a high temperature, the individual will be welcome to do a rapid test for Covid-19, with results in 15 minutes. If the passenger does not accept, entry into the city will be denied to all passengers. If undergoing the test, entry will be allowed depending on the test result.

Thx, I knew that. The phase 5 open stuff has mention of cv test from July 15th if it's online yet and Aug 1st open the doors eliminating the sanitizing screen check point. It's perhaps a bit confusing.

as of July 8, 2020

Puerto Peñasco registered 1 death and 7 new cases of Covid-19. With this, 3 deaths and 36 cases are accumulated in total.
Sonora added 31 deaths and 214 new cases.

I think they are under reporting the numbers to not cause chaos. The interactive map has not been updated for two weeks or more and was showing 4 deaths and yet they are reporting 3 deaths now. I wish they would stop with all the lies and just tell us like it is so we know what to expect.

I re entered town earlier this PM. I came in through San Louis, south of Yuma. Got a green light at the border. Fast drive down to Puerto Peñasco. At the sanItaly filter I got into the Residents line. The other choice was Tourist. Within 5 minutes I presented my Resident card and CFE Bill. I was told to walk through the tunnel. It was fast and innocuous. In under 10 minutes I was on my way with no stickers on the vehicle and no paperwork or talk of any quarantine.

According to a news report today, due to the large number of states moving into the red zone the federal govt might increase national restrictions on travel. Apparently Mexico is on fire with the virus again, worse than ever. I need to get to Ajo to the bank before another round of belt tightening.

Southern Mexico has been on fire for weeks now so I doubt there will be a second belt tightening. The relationship has been inverse. As things got progressively worse in southern Mexico the time line for full re-open has only gotten better for RP. Definitely weird.

I hope you are going to be able to get in and out quickly, better yet, you already have.

Az is exploding with new cases with record deaths, and if I was in Roberto's shoes I would not feel very comfortable if the gates were opened prematurely.

I returned to the US this morning via Lukeville. The usual Sonyota speed traps plus a new one over a click before the 40 kph zone. Don’t know what the speed limit is there, but I was below it. At the border CBP guy tried to blow smoke up my ass about it being a level 5 border closure and if I kept going back and forth I could find myself denied entry one way or the other. I toyed with telling him how much he’d enjoy being the guy denying entry to documented citizens but I was in a hurry.

One click, that's in between the second to last and the last turn before the uphill and at the knoll, 40kph.... I believe outside of the 40 zone it's 80kph where you're describing. Those sneaky fucking russians...
