The US State Department lists a no travel warning stating even vaccinated individuals can catch and spread Covid variants.

Are any of you deciding NOT to travel to Mexico specifically for this reason ?

Thanks

I'm going to guess no. People who are refusing to go to Mexico are not using Covid related excuses.

I crossed from San Diego to Tijuana last weekend for the first time since Feb 2020. We were in TJ and Rosarito doing the tourist thing from 11AM until 2AM. The covid protocols actually feel more adequate in TJ than they do in SD. Every place we went to in TJ required temp checks and hand sanitizer at the door, masks required everywhere as well.

Although the protocols were more stringent in TJ than anything I ever witnessed in SD, in my opinion all the protocols were just for show and to make people feel better about being out and about

Thanks.

I keep hearing the same thing from people with boots on the ground.

^^ Mexicans with tourist visas are still restricted from entering into the US. US citizens, residents and Mexicans with work visas can cross freely.

They just closed the malecon in La Paz due to covid.

It's one of those absurd things if you think about it. On one side of the street is the really wide seafront sidewalk, and on the other side is a smaller normal sidewalk that passes in front of the businesses. Due to high covid cases they closed off the wide seafront sidewalk, so now the same number of people are packed into the smaller sidewalk across the street making it far more crowded than two days ago.

Even funnier = the tour boats are still going out, but since they leave from the beach on the malecon they can't pick up their passengers. So what the boats do is idle back and forth waiting until no police are passing, then rush up to beach themselves so a tour vendor can get a bunch of waddling tourists onto their transportation, then take off before police catch them. Works same in reverse, in the afternoon boats roll up and everyone rushes out to get across the street into town before the cops come. Lots of tour guides yelling andale andale andale.

I love Mexico.

I was in TJ for 9 days. People were more careful in Tijuana than San Diego. Temperature checks, hand sanitizer, and masks in just about every store big or small that I visited.
