“Thanks to everyone’s efforts, we received the news that as of Monday, September 7, in the municipality of Benito Juárez, the epidemiological light will turn yellow.

This allows us to increase the percentage of activities and the opening of public beaches in a responsible manner,” explained Lezama.

She stressed that authorities will be at each of the beach sites to ensure compliance, which includes a group maximum of five people, healthy distancing and the use of sanitizing gel. Sports will not be allowed and alcoholic beverages, prohibited.
