HINT #1--Follow the little colored circles!!
Week after week, our Northern Zone's status (Orange) is determined by Hospital Availability & C-19 Cases, according to the worst indicator. The little colored circles on the WEEKLY REPORT represent these indicators.
>>First Graphic-THIS WEEK it's Yellow for Hospital Availability, but Orange for both the Number of Daily Cases & the Average of New Cases.
>>Second Graphic-LAST WEEK, Hospital Availability was Green, the Number of Daily Cases was Yellow and Average of New Cases was Orange.
The epidemiological color announcement is made each Thursday night for the following Monday-Sunday & I post it at ~9p on Isla Mujeres News & Events & Isla Mujeres News & Events Group-Noticias & Eventos.
HINT #2--Look at the bar under the map!
>>Third Graphic-The DAILY REPORTS show the Growth Rate of Cases for the Northern Zone at 0.5 THIS WEEK. It was 1.0 LAST WEEK, while at the beginning of August it was 1.2, and at the end of July it was 1.4.
The State GEOPORTAL shows the Incidence Rate of Active Cases by municipality, allowing observation of trends among the more populous areas of our Northern Zone, such as Benito Juarez (Cancun) & Solidaridad (PDC) who have been improving considerably. This statistic reflects the number of active cases per 10,000 residents. Our Northern Zone excludes the four large municipalities at the bottom the state, so it's Tulum (dark beige) & upward on Graphic #4.
>>Fourth Graphic-THIS WEEK--Isla Mujeres has been at 10.26, (the worst in the Northern Zone), followed by Holbox (LC) with 8.44 and Tulum with 6.11. The best are the most populated-- Cancun (BJ)& Puerto Morelos with 2.34, Solidaridad (PDC) at 3.01, and Cozumel at 3.12. Isla Mujeres is third worst in the state behind Chetumal (OTB) with 12.94 and Bacalar with 11.51, which are both in the Southern Zone.
>>Fifth Graphic-LAST WEEK--Isla Mujeres was at 9.23, which was second worst in the Northern Zone, behind Holbox (LC) at 18.35, and fourth worst in the state, with Chetumal (OPB) in second at 14.99 and Bacalar in third with 14.06. The best are the more populated Northern Zone municipalities of Cancun-Puerto Morelos at 3.28, Solidaridad (PDC) at 4.48 and Cozumel at 5.09. Tulum is at 7.95.
HINT #4--Where to find this information in English, published promptly?
At Isla Mujeres News & Events page & Isla Mujeres News & Events Group-Noticias & Eventos, we translate the mid-day reports, the Thursday night announcements, the Geoportal updates, and the national daily testing data for our municipality, as well as publishing graphics showing trends for Isla Mujeres (#6 & 7) We're sponsored by Maravilla Caribe Bed & Beach. Upgrading to Yellow means businesses now operating at 30% capacity can increase to 60%, as well as the opening of beaches, with restrictions. Downgrading to Red would mean restaurants, hotels, etc reduce capacity to 15%.
WHAT WILL THE BEACH RESTRICTIONS BE?
When the beaches reopen in the Yellow status, the maximum capacity will be 60%. Access will be limited to a maximum stay of 3 hours, masks or face shields will be mandatory, and beach-goers must respect the delineated spaces and healthy distancing, according to the head of the ZOFEMAT (Federal Zone) agency in Isla Mujeres. She also explained that groups of more than five people will not be permitted, alcohol cannot be brought to the beach, and beach-goers should bring a degradable plastic bag to collect the garbage they generate.(#8)

Turtles continue nesting in August. They can be observed mating offshore from Punta Sur
during this
month, and they nest along the eastern beaches. Tortugranja staff and
volunteers gather the eggs and incubate them in the sand in a pen
outside the facility. Three species nest annually in Isla Mujeres, Greens, Loggerheads,
and Hawksbills, and very rarely, a Leatherback will attempt to nest,
but generally the sand isn't sufficiently deep.Swimming with the whale sharks takes place in August, which ends annually in mid-September. They congregate and feed on a 'buffet' of plankton and fish eggs from a type of tuna. Rays are also attracted to the feeding areas. Photo by Tony Garcia
>>Meteors!! The Perseids are currently active & one of the most popular showers. They will peak in the early mornings of the weekend of August 11,12 & 13, but the moon will be at or slightly past its last quarter phase and interfering. However, the Perseids are bright & you may see 3 or 4 dozen when they are peaking, if you're patient. They continue thru the 24th. The Alpha Capricornids are going on now (thru Aug. 15) with only a few meteors per hour, but they are known for producing bright fireballs when active. (They peaked Tuesday & moonlight will interfere with visibility.)
