General Reports

[QUOTE=Jinxx;2446900]I read in an article that the girlfriend had pictures on her social media of her on vacations in Paris and other exotic locales. It said she was a teacher at an elementary school which I doubt she made enough money to travel the world in luxury. Factory workers in Tijuana make like a hundred dollars a week (or less). It's also obvious that she was drop dead gorgeous. So who was financing her luxurious travels? Who in Ciudad Juarez has the bread to date a gorgeous teacher and take her on trips to Europe? Probably somebody who could EASILY arrange a couple hitmen to shoot up her pretty boy gringo boyfriend riding around in a suv with NY plates. Dude was playing with fire going down there the way he did. Or it could've been a complete accidental mistaken identity. But dating a gorgeous woman like that anywhere is going to stir up jealousy and resentment, and doing it in one of the deadliest most lawless cities on planet Earth? I don't know man. We'll see what the "investigation" turns up.[/QUOTE]Juarez is an extremely dangerous City now. I would never do what he did-bring a good looking fiancee there in a jeep. Very bad judgement on his part.

Phase I is in place for California. Border crossing is impacted by this Stay at Home Order, Phase I.

April 4, CBP staff reinforced the California Stay in Order in a confused way. California Phase II is projected for the coming weeks and not months.

What is CBP doing currently to prevent visit to Tijuana?

Rx was a No No on April 4. CBP.

The bigger issue is if Mexico will let you in. Medical would seem to be essential travel. But I haven't heard any reports of Mexico stopping people coming in regardless of the reason. Maybe phordphan or others can elaborate.

No other questions were asked and I entered Nogales, Sonora.

I haven't had a problem going into Mexicali. If asked by Mx immigration, I tell them I'm purchasing medicines and that I have a mask. On coming back to the USA, if CBP inspectors ask, I tell them that I purchased meds and I'm going back to Arizona. I haven't had any problems yet. Maybe I'm lucky. YMMV.

Alot these girls who have vacation pictures, took those pictures on the vacation the prior boyfriend paid for. It just sounded like they liked mexico, I mean, it's easy place to like if your into a bit of chaos and you like mexican food. When I leave San Diego often think to myself, I was crazy for going to Tijuana all the time.

Governor Newsom Stay at Home Order in place till May 15 and today closing all beach from MEX to Oregon border. Arizona Stay at Home Order in effect? Not enough known about CBP action now. It is easy to loose SENTRI and GLOBAL privilege.

Fryer45.[/QUOTE]I can confirm that I've had no issue entering Mexico at the Andrade port of entry to LOS Algodones.

Last Friday I was able to enter Mexico at San Luis Rio Colorado, but the next morning when I was coming back to the US, CBP held me for nearly 2 hours and gave me a ration of shit before letting me go. Honestly, I attribute this to them having a lot of spare time since the port is so dead. I plan to visit Los Algodones again this Saturday for an overnight with my regular girl, so I'll update this thread when it happens.

Teachers in the US barely make enough to survive so I can imagine what a primary school PE teacher in Mexico makes, probably less than the US minimum wage.

How in the world did you come to the conclusion that "it just sounded like they liked Mexico"? Huh? What? We're not talking about white sandy beaches of Cancun or Cabo San Lucas. Ciudad Juarez is an ugly ass, mega dangerous, semi war zone, hell hole. This guy is a good looking guy with money. He was only in Juarez to be with her, because that's her home, and they were quarantining together.

And yes I'm thinking that there's a good chance that she has a "prior boyfriend" with big dinero who paid for her fancy vacations. And whether he was a narco or not, it's probably not difficult for a jealous local guy with money to arrange a hit on some outsider who's in town shacked up with his gorgeous ex novia.

[QUOTE=TjBrazil;2446239]The virus shouldn't matter if use SA. They just drive to your hotel. What am I missing.[/QUOTE]People with the virus are contagious for several days before they show any symptoms.

So if the SA gal is infected, so are you.

Media lied, people died: Italian study finds incredible. Prophylaxis Results for Patients on Hydroxychloroquine.

And now a new study from hard-hit Italy found that those Italians on hydroxychloroquine for Lupus or Rheumatoid Arthritis did not come down with the coronavirus. Only 20 patients (out of 65000) tested positive for COVID-19. No ICU, and no one died!

I've been taking HCQ for about 5 weeks per the Indian Ministry of Health Council reco for doctors treating COVID patients plus zinc daily. So I'm taking trips to Tijuana without worries about getting the China fever. Have visited farmacias in Tijuana to buy more HCQ and now it is much more difficult, likely due to hoarding by pharmacists and doctors.

Contrary to my previous report, crossing north at San Ysidro no longer has the fast window at midnight. Dunno what happened, but just sat through a 2 hour wait at approximately the same time frame where a month ago took less than 3 minutes. BWT websites, both app and Chrome showed an increase where they're normally conservative estimates. YMMV. A real crapshoot.

Background: Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is caused by a newly discovered coronavirus (SARS-CoV). No effective prophylactic or post-exposure therapy is currently available.

Results: We report, however, that chloroquine has strong antiviral effects on SARS-CoV infection of primate cells. These inhibitory effects are observed when the cells are treated with the drug either before or after exposure to the virus, suggesting both prophylactic and therapeutic advantage. In addition to the well-known functions of chloroquine such as elevations of endosomal pH, the drug appears to interfere with terminal glycosylation of the cellular receptor, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2. This may negatively influence the virus-receptor binding and abrogate the infection, with further ramifications by the elevation of vesicular pH, resulting in the inhibition of infection and spread of SARS CoV at clinically admissible concentrations.

Conclusion: Chloroquine is effective in preventing the spread of SARS CoV in cell culture. Favorable inhibition of virus spread was observed when the cells were either treated with chloroquine prior to or after SARS CoV infection. In addition, the indirect immunofluorescence assay described herein represents a simple and rapid method for screening SARS-CoV antiviral compounds.

Nutshell: Chloroquine has been known since 2005 to be "a potent inhibitor of Sars Coronavirus. . . " NIH: Director About NIAID Director, Anthony Fauci, M. The.
