Cartagena Reports

[QUOTE=Kafka;2548076]This is nothing new and Cartegena is 90 F every day. The rates there have.been lower than Bogara and Medellin . Laguito is loaded with hospitals..... But I don't blame you for being nervous[/QUOTE]The curfew on weekends in Cartagena was 2 am, correct? Now, it appears that it's 12 am. I'm not nervous about the virus. I'm going as long as they allow me to fly there. I can even work with a 12 am curfew. I think it would work in my favor. I'd rather pick up my night time chica and if it's going well let the st turn into a "free" tln since there's nothing else to do.

If you have a domestic flight in the US its the worst.
Have your negative PCR test printed out and fill at the iiMIG form before you get to the airport.
Its better to be vaccinated, of course.
12 am curfew is not an issue for me. Late night bad things happen, always. But the curfew are enforced by city.......

I was able to do what I needed to do with a little night time entertainment. That was in January. In March I returned to a 2 am curfew. So currently the curfew has relegated back to 12 AM? I tried to go on the Internet to get an update but I cannot find the information.

I didn't know things have changed since last month.

[QUOTE=MiamiSammy;2548305]Are they accepting vaccination records, or negative tests only?[/QUOTE]I only except negative test unless you can show Medically that you have recovered from the virus within the last 30 days.

Greetings all,

I had originally planned to stay in Medellin 4/9-4/18, however, due to the curfew in Medellin I decided to just stay in Medellin a few nights and then head to Cartagena for the remainder of my trip for obvious reasons. I figure with all of the work I did on SA and FB to set up some real cute girls I should at least swing through Medellin and say Hi to some of them.

Apologies if this question has already been answered recently but I looked back and couldn't find a clear cut answer. My question: Is there any restrictions or requirements to fly domestically from Medellin to Cartagena and then back to Medellin? Specifically, is there any type of Covid test requirement to get on a domestic flight? Just trying to be sure I plan ahead and am prepared.

Side note: If anyone plans on being in Medellin April 9-13 or Cartagena April 14-18 hit me up and maybe we can meet for a beer.

Cheers!

No domestic flight test requirements. Please report back

This looks like bad news is getting ready to hit Cartagena this article was written on April the 6th I'm writing this post at midnight EST so by the time both of you read this on April 7th they may have already announced the new restrictions. Shit just got ugly down there. They have strains of the virus now that are more contagious and more deadly so a greater number of people end up in ICU

https://www.eluniversal.com.co/cartagena/nuevas-restricciones-por-covid-19-en-cartagena-esperan-aprobacion-XM4439088

"This scenario led to the city's Intensive Care Units (ICU) occupancy going from 53% on March 26 to 69% on April 5, that is, more than 15 additional percentage points. The president explained that more restrictive measures will be adapted, but without paralyzing the city. The mayor explained that before announcing the changes, they must be reviewed by the Ministries of the Interior and Health, so it is expected that they can be approved no later than tomorrow. "It is still premature to say the measures, because they must necessarily go through the Ministry of the Interior, in Bogota, and they in turn pass it on to the Ministry of Health, we hope to make them known by tomorrow at the latest." - The mayor.

That article states that there is "rumor" or it says "audio" but I take it as a rumor going around that they are putting the city on complete lockdown, but health minister said that is a bullshit rumor (my wording not his of course) and the president has promised not to completely paralyze the city.

According to this article the hospital system in Bolivar had been filling up already from overflow from the surrounding departments of Sucre, Atlantico, Magdalena and Cordoba because "they previously declared the collapse of their hospital network" (I assume he just means over they overflowed) so this includes Santa Marta and Barranquilla. That is some fucked up shit.

I am going to throw out a crazy suggestion though, you can strike it up as crazy but this is something I personally would consider doing. If I was there and I got some time to be at say the clock tower because talk is very much looking like they are not going to allow the clubs to be open period. So I think I would start considering asking chicas not just for their Whatsapp number but also to see the last digits of their cedula , if they do end up starting that shit where certain numbers on cedulas determine who can go out on certain days then it would help to know which chicas to message on which days.

Also need to keep ear to the ground and see if they start breaking up the crowds at the Clock Tower then the SWs may move somewhere else.

Lets see what the new rules are going to be. But this definitely is a yellow light for the next month I would expect.

[QUOTE=Kafka;2548822]Get ready to hit the pause button. New measures being drafted.[/QUOTE]I'm closely monitoring the situation and I'm still strongly considering coming. The only deal breakers are a 6 pm curfew, no beaches, and the cedula even / odd day crap. Out of my 7 days, if I can hit the different beaches / islands, maybe day trip to Palenque, walk the old city and Getsemani, this should be enough to give me options if I get bored during the day time. I would have liked to check out the clubs, but clocktower, playa hollywood, tinder, and escort sites should still have some inventory.

It does take the wind of my sails. All of this on top of my Airbnb pulling some last minute curfew BS, but I already canceled that and got a good replacement that I'll pull the trigger on depending on the news.

As of now. Yes. But they were overrun over Easter so now is the mea culpa.

[QUOTE=MiamiSammy;2548925]The beaches are still open, right?[/QUOTE]

Some changes are definitely coming, but not a complete lockdown. I suspect curfew is 12 am on weekends and maybe 10 pm weekdays. Bars / clubs closed. Restaurants at a certain capacity. My guess is the beaches will remain open.
