flu update

Posted by Rho

Please read the following letter from Scott Wester, written to our summer teams regarding the flu concerns.


Team Leaders,

This week Ensenada area schools started returning to their regular schedules. By next week, all schools & businesses will be operating at normal levels. 

To this point there has not been an Outbreak in our area of Baja California. 
To my knowledge there has only been one person with the H1N1, who was treated and released.  (It may be worth noting that San Diego has had more cases)

All appearances from the CDC & WHO are that this is a mild virus. It is important to keep in mind that many people in Mexico are not accustomed to going to the doctor for flu like symptoms. This has been speculated as being one reason why a number of people died from it initially. However, the message is out and I can tell you that any Mexican I know would now go to the doctor immediately if they were experiencing flu like symptoms. 

We believe that the situation has improved & travel to & in Baja continues to be safe. 

I will send another update in the coming weeks, or sooner if the situation warrants it. 

We look forward to hosting your team in Ensnada this summer. We are so thankful for your partnership with YUGO Ministries, and we trust that your presence in Mexico this summer will not only be a blessing to the people of Mexico & the Kingdom of God, but it will be a blessing to your team as well. 

Again, please feel free to contact me personally if you have any questions or concerns. 

Serving with you in the Spirit of Jesus,

Scott C Wester
