MEXICO NEWS DAILY<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Guerrero tourist destinations of Acapulco, Zihuatanejo and Taxco are ready to welcome visitors after the governor of Guerrero approved the reopening of hotels, restaurants and beaches with certain restrictions, state authorities announced Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After three months of lockdown, hotels and restaurants can now operate at 30% capacity and beaches are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. for running, walking and swimming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warehouses, shopping malls and churches can also reopen. Parks, athletic fields and zoos can now be visited at 25% of their capacity, and barbershops and beauty salons can open by appointment only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The move comes in anticipation of Guerrero\u2019s transition from a red, or maximum risk designation on the federal government\u2019s color-coded coronavirus \u201cstoplight\u201d map, to orange, or high risk, when the map is updated on Friday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a message posted to social media, Governor H\u00e9ctor Astudillo announced that the decision to reopen was reached after consulting with the federal government, businesses and social organizations.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe opening will be in observance of the protocols in accordance with the trend that may place us at the epidemiological orange traffic light of the federal government,\u201d he announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guerrero Health Minister Carlos de la Pe\u00f1a reiterated that changing to orange does not mean that the coronavirus crisis has ended and health protocols will remain in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this week, businesses in Acapulco removed the protective plywood some had installed on doors and windows and hung banners announcing their reopening. \u201cThank you very much for your support and solidarity, for helping our people during the confinement, we are back,\u201d read the banner at the entrance to the Krystal Beach Hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Restaurants began deep cleaning and rearranging tables to accommodate diners and conform with social distancing regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juan Campos Ba\u00f1os, president of a beach workers union in Pie de la Cuesta, Acapulco, said the reopening has been met with both enthusiasm and uncertainty among workers in the tourism sector.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe do not know if tourists will come. The economy was badly hurt during this break due to confinement,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s been almost three months without working, without money. Informal businesses have also been affected, as have waiters, those who offer horseback riding on the beach and people who give massages.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those businesses who do reopen, owners will have to purchase the supplies necessary to meet government health protocols, such as antibacterial gel, face masks and sanitary doormats. Those who don\u2019t have the resources to make such an investment will have to remain closed, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe do not know what awaits us, but we have to start little by little,\u201d Campos said. \u201cWhat we do not want is to enter the red light again.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of Wednesday, Guerrero had recorded 5,571 confirmed cases of the coronavirus and 900 deaths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
