The newspaper Reforma reported Tuesday that people have flocked to testing centers in Sonora, Nuevo León, Guanajuato, Baja California, Chihuahua, Zacatecas, Tabasco, Coahuila, Yucatán, Aguascalientes, Quintana Roo, Querétaro, Jalisco, Veracruz and Mexico City. The increased demand for testing came as the Health Ministry reported the highest number of daily cases since September 8 on Tuesday.

And if one has some serious symptoms a trip to the Emergency room gets you a test right away.... know this from personal experience. (Turned out to be something else but....)

Ferret Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 On December 20th, 2021 there were 14,724 in all of Mexico and 509 in Jalisco. Yesterday, there were 74,392 in Mexico and 2,631 in Jalisco. And we know those numbers are under reported. It's here. Stay safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickS Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 Yes.... just a matter of time. A couple of days ago the US reported 1 Million cases reported in ONE DAY! And think of how many were NOT reported. Hopefully it is not as harmful or lethal as Delta but sick is sick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too sure the difference in a Positive Test and a Case but I'll defer to your correction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolajoe Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 I was in close contact on December 26 with someone that subsequently developed COVID on January 3. I just found out about it at 4 pm today. I did not think there was much chance that I was infected, but wanted to be certain. I drove to Walmart and waited in line to get tested. It took about half an hour. I was back home ar 4:45. I got the email around 6 pm saying that the test was negative. One thing of interest was that the woman doing the testing told me that they are getting about 100 positives a day. These are the same two women that administered the test for my trip to the US in early October. They are very efficient. They tested about 20 people while I was there. All were Mexicans, I was the only gringo. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
