While the coronavirus pandemic has led authorities around the globe to cancel concerts and sporting events, Mexico City is going ahead with Vive Latino — one of the most important music festivals in the country.
Thousands cheer the Vive Latino festival in Mexico City, Saturday, March 14, 2020. On Friday afternoon organizers confirmed that the 21st edition of the festival will go on as planned.
Concerns about the new COVID-19 illness were evident, though. At the entrance, the usual security checks for such events had a new filter: Each person entering was checked for fever and a strong smell of antibacterial gel permeated in the air. “Because I consider it is more a collective hysteria than any other thing. In Mexico we have a culture of a little bit more of hygiene that helps us to limit this kind of transmissions,” he said.
Only a few people showed up wearing masks, such as Daniel Ramirez, who covered his face with a mask decorated with a picture of a fox. He said he suffers from asthma and needs to be more cautious. He was also using antibacterial gel.“We have to be informed and before panicking you have to read some texts and know that it is serious but we are still in a passable stage,” Ramirez said of the outbreak.
