The always-in-crisis crisis that is Mexico's public health system is worsening. Some headlines just from today:

"Workers in the nutrition area of the Doctor Aurelio Valdivieso Civil Hospital in the city of Oaxaca denounced that they have run out of food for more than 200 patients from various Indigenous communities in the state."

A migrant encampment housing more than 400 people was evicted Thursday night in Mexico City, but city officials deny involvement and claim not to know who did it.

Suspicion is falling on organized crime after reports that people were being forced to pay 8,000 pesos per month for the "right" to stay in the camp, which was in a public park.

Some Mexico news:

President Sheinbaum and her lackeys at the National Human Rights Commission (CNDH - an ostensibly autonomous state institution) are battling with the United Nations over disappearances. The UN says disappearances in Mexico are "generalized and systemic." With no sense of irony, or apparent grasp on reality, the CNDH replied that, "We reject that Mexico is experiencing a crisis of disappearances and more so reject that these are the result of State policy." They then ramble on about foreign meddling making things worse. Apparently 124,000 disappeared since 2006 is something that just happens?

In an incident causing widespread indignation, on Saturday afternoon, a poorly built structure collapsed in strong winds at the international AXE Ceremonia Festival in Mexico City, killing two photojournalists. That was at 5:30pm. The show continued until 2am with no interruption.

The festival was to proceed on Sunday and authorities said they would close the venue after the festival ended. In response to outrage over the deaths and refusals by artists, including mi querido Ed Maverick, to perform as if nothing happened, they finally cancelled the remainder of the event.

"It was not an accident, it was negligence," say the journalists' union.

"Esta es la última de una serie de esculturas en la que retomo las cabezas olmecas para hablar de temas específicos. Esta pieza está compuesta por dos elementos. Por un lado, tenemos una réplica de una cabeza Olmeca tallada en cantera, de aproximadamente nueve toneladas, y un Tesla model 3, el cual fue destruido por el peso colosal de la cabeza. Esta obra fue una comisión hecha con el apoyo y la ayuda de Colima 71, a quienes agradezco mucho por creer y por arriesgarse con mi trabajo"

This morning in Mexico City, during President López Obrador's daily press conference, students from Ayotzinapa and family members of the disappeared protested outside the National Palace and smashed in one of its doors. Military police responded by firing tear gas.

Since February 26, the parents of the 43 disappeared from Ayotzinapa have been encamped in front of the National Palace, demanding a dialog with López Obrador, the handing over of military documents, and the return of the Interdisciplinary Group of Independent Experts (GIEI).

en más noticias internacionales, pasado mañana salgo en un viaje en 🚲 desde la #cdmx con destino a la 🏖️ de #chachalacas.

Tomará un estimado de 6 días a razón de 60 km diarios promedio (hay días más largos y más cortos)

#TIL that one of the most commonly played street vendor “jingles” in #Mexico City was created by a father-daughter #clown team (English with Spanish).

Hoy me enteré de que una de las canciones de los vendedores ambulantes más tocadas en #CDMX fue creada por unos #payasos —un padre y su hija (inglés con español).

The Siren of Scrap Metal - 99% Invisible

Amid the noisy bustle of Mexico City, there is one iconic sound echoing on repeat in the background. A recording that blares from trucks looking to buy old household items and appliances, either to fix and resell or to sell for scrap.
