b.  From the Delegation:  October has arrived and with it, the return of many foreign resident friends who have adopted Cabo del Este, and in particular Los Barriles as their second Home.  The season of more tourists in our area begins, which is very beneficial for the economic life of our community.  The #covid19 continues with us and we are learning to live with it … this is why your solidarity, respect and empathy is very important to continue with the protocols of healthy distance, mouth covers use in closed and crowded places and if you consider appropriate, to take a few days of isolation if you think you have some risk of contagion.  2020 is very different for everyone, but together #HagamosComunidad to make every day a better day.  Welcome home Atte. Luis Enrique lucero meza Delegado Municipal de Los Barriles. 2018-2021.

c.  Hola amigos surfcasters, my Nov 10th to 12th is sold out, thank you for your support amigos. I still have 2 openings for the Nov 17th to 19th. This is my 3rd winter season taking people to the Pacific north of La Paz to Rancho La Aguja (that is not a mexican cattle ranch by the way) but thats where we camp. This is a surf fishing expedition of 4 sessions targeting: roosters, snook, curvina, jacks and some other species that can be caught in that region. I supply transportation, meals, tackle if necessary and we spent 3 days fishing on 20 miles of isolated beaches. If you are trying to increase your experience fishing from the beach join me for this 3 days enjoying the area.

COVID INFO

Information provided by:  https://coronavirus.bcs.gob.mx/casos-covid-19/?fbclid=IwAR0KMMYLmafYDw8bgUM6UkzCPToxCrWUOrDG_muWuHH4qvcwDTp-cuASYbE

a.  From the Health Clinic:  In the month of August, we performed 13 PCR nasal swab tests and 21 rapid antibody tests. Our staff gets regular, random testing regardless of symptoms. We’ve developed protocols that are constantly evolving in accordance with research and recommendations from the experts to keep our staff and patients safe. We’ve rearranged our waiting rooms, providing strict social distancing policies and maximum capacities for our facilities. Since March we have been tracking the body temperature and symptoms of all staff at the entrance and exit of the clinic each workday. All patients entering the clinic now must step on a sanitizing mat, wear a mask, apply hand sanitizer, and have their temperature checked before entering the clinic. Thanks to donations from our generous community, anyone who needs a cloth, the reusable mask can have one free of charge. Additionally, we are now ordering a doctor’s order with a probable diagnosis for all chest X-rays.

Our clinic has been working closely with the Centro de Salud, the Delegado, and Civil Protection in preparation for the pandemic. When we receive donations from the community, we always share the overflow with the local community workers, including N95 masks and pulse oximeters. We recently had a generous donation from Tori Wickland for 3 new pulse oximeters and a pediatric pulse oximeter. These key instruments are expensive and hard to find. We appreciate all our friends and fans of the clinic who are helping us in these difficult times.

We do what we can for this community and with your support, we’re able to do more.  The support that we received to acquire the COVID Personal Protection Equipment and the COVID Containment Chambers for the Ambulances was amazing.  And when we asked for support to help keep our doors open as the result of the economic slowdown that came with this pandemic, the outpouring of aid was awesome.  Thank you.   We continue to expand the breadth and quality of our services while providing care to those who otherwise could not afford (with a focus on the children) with discount programs.  And we’re able to do so through the revenue that we receive from the use of our services plus the generous donations.  We are fortunate to have partnerships with Leaders2Give and ICF who provide 501(c)3 Tax Deduction receipts for US Citizens.  If you’d like to contribute toward our efforts please visit our website: EastcapeHealthCenter.org/donate.

b.  Which cellphone provider works best in Los Barriles? Seems to be the most asked question this time of year. Let’s start with LB. The cell towers in Los Barriles belong to Telcel, Telefonica and ATT. Those providers have contracts to share access with all of the US/Canadian providers. For example, let’s say that you are a Verizon customer in the US. Verizon does not own any towers in Mexico. Okay, a couple at the airport. Verizon has contracts with the three companies in our area to connect their customers. Therefore you may see that your phone is actually connected to TelCel when you have a contract with Verizon. The ATT tower provides primary service to ATT customers, but that tower is not conveniently located to all locations in the Los Barriles area. A large number of newer cell phones allow “internet calling”. That connects your cellphone to WiFi and then your calls will travel over the internet. If you have a fast internet, that works well. Cell data speeds may vary depending on your US Provider. Mexico will provide priority service to it’s own customers leaving those of us who “piggy back” with slower speeds during busy times.

US carriers provide different cost options for service in Mexico. Before you leave, it’s best to check with your provider to make sure you have the best plan for Mexico. T mobile has a Senior Plan that offers unlimited calls, texts and data from anywhere in North America. Beware of unlimited data plans. If you use it as a “hotspot”, those companies will begin to reduce your speed after you reach their predetermined limit. If you are a data “hog”, they may cancel your service.

Here is a link to Mexican Cell phone carriers: https://www.weexpats.com/best-cell-phone-plans-for-living-in-mexico/ I have a plan with Telcel that gives me unlimited calls and texts in North America with 3 GB of data for 400 pesos per month.

Some very good alternatives are Skype, What’s App and Facebook Messenger. With Skype you can call toll free numbers at no charge. Skype does charge a very small amount to call a direct dial number. For $60 per year you can have a virtual phone number that people can call. You can use an old cellphone as a dedicated Skype phone or add the app to your current phone. Remember a good internet connection is a must. The critical part of the internet speed is the upstream bandwidth. You should have at least .6kbps up for the person you are calling to hear you clearly. Test you connection with speedtest.net. If anyone else is surfing on your network during your call, the call will be choppy.

The final consideration is the type of phone you have. Not all cellphones are equal in terms of quality and I’m not referring to look and feel. The antenna quality, antenna location and radio frequencies do vary. By the way, 5G service is still in the infant stage in the US and non-existent in Baja. Don’t rush out to buy a 5G phone.  thecomputerguy@usa.com
