the pernicious effect of prejudice and discrimination that are most dramatically expressed in the unequal rates of incarceration, but also in the daily interaction with the forces of law and order.

A

menos de 100 días de las cruciales elecciones presidenciales del 3 de noviembre ha quedado claro que los asuntos de salud relacionados con la letal pandemia del COVID-19 y las manifestaciones populares contra las injusticias raciales se han ubicado en un lugar central entre las preocupaciones de los votantes estadounidenses en general, pero en particular de los votantes latinos.

Se trata de un énfasis lógico toda vez que está documentado que las minorías en general, y la latina en particular, hemos sido diezmadas desproporcionalmente por la crisis del COVID-19. De la misma forma, somos las minorías las más afectadas por el efecto pernicioso de los prejuicios y la discriminación que se expresan más dramáticamente en las tasas desiguales de encarcelamiento, pero también en la diaria interacción con las fuerzas del orden.

Un reciente sondeo de la organización Latino Decisions arroja sin embargo conclusiones preocupantes: Los latinos, especialmente los más jóvenes, muestran en este momento un menor entusiasmo sobre el proceso electoral 2020 que el inicio del año y respecto de el mismo periodo en el proceso electoral del 2016.

La encuesta encontró también que los votantes latinos muestran bajos niveles de información sobre las opciones para el voto por correo y sobre cómo la pandemia del COVID-19 podría afectar su acceso a las urnas del 3 de noviembre. El tema de las injusticias raciales, los votantes latinos, especialmente los jóvenes, apoyan el movimiento Black Lives Matter, pues consideran que la violencia policial es sistémica.

Todo lo cual confirma que tanto organizaciones partidistas, sociales, comunitarias y los medios informativos tradicionales y digitales tenemos que hacer un mejor papel en subsanar los déficits de información que subsisten entre nuestra comunidad, así como buscar formas innovadoras de tocar la conciencia y el corazón de los votantes latinos.

Por fortuna hay buenas noticias. La organización Voto Latino reportó que sólo en el mes de junio logró registrar a más de 97,000 personas, el 80% de las cuales es menor de 33 años de edad y el 75% de ellas, mujeres, de acuerdo con su dirigente María Teresa Kumar.

Su mensaje es claro: Vota por tu futuro, vota por tu comunidad, vota por aquellos que no pueden y vota porque si no lo hacen, otros lo harán por ti.

Otras organizaciones han tomado un enfoque diferente, apelando a nuestra naturaleza como animales sociales, donde el cumplir con nuestra palabra, con tu sentido de responsabilidad individual y con los compromisos hacia tu colectividad, son los argumentos principales para alentar a nuestra comunidad

a dar el primer paso de registrarse a votar, y asistir a las urnas.

El tres de noviembre los latinos seremos el grupo racial o étnico más grande para votar, con un récord de 32 millones de electores elegibles, o el 13.3% de todos los votantes elegibles. Más allá si has sido contactado por las campañas o por los políticos o por los grupos, si eres elegible vota.

ess than 100 days after the crucial presidential elections on November 3, it has become clear that health issues related to the deadly COVID-19 pandemic and popular protests against racial injustices have been central to the concerns of American voters in general, but Latino voters in particular.

This is a logical emphasis since it is documented that minorities in general, and Latinos in particular, have been disproportionately decimated by the COVID-19 crisis. In the same way, we are the minorities most affected by

A recent poll by the Latino Decisions organization produces worrying conclusions: Latinos, especially the youngest, currently show less enthusiasm about the 2020 electoral process than the beginning of the year and regarding the same period in the electoral process of the 2016.

The poll also found that Latino voters show low levels of information about voting by mail options and how the COVID-19 pandemic could affect their access to the polls on November 3.

On the issue of racial injustice, Latino voters, especially youth, support the Black Lives Matter movement, as they view police violence as systemic.

All of which confirms that both partisan, social, community organizations and traditional and digital media have to do a better role in filling the remaining information deficits among our community, as well as looking for innovative ways to touch the conscience and the heart of Latino voters.

Fortunately there is good news. The organization Latino Vote reported that in June alone, it managed to register more than 97,000 people, 80% of whom are under 33 years of age and 75% of them women, according to its leader María Teresa Kumar. Her message is clear: Vote for your future, vote for your community, vote for those who cannot and vote because if they don't, others will do it for you.

Other organizations have taken a different approach, appealing to our nature as social animals, where keeping our word, with your sense of individual responsibility and with commitments to your community, are the main arguments to encourage our community to give the first step to register to vote, and attend the polls.

On November 3, Latinos will be the largest racial or ethnic group to vote, with a record 32 million eligible voters, or 13.3% of all eligible voters. Beyond that if you have been contacted by campaigns or by politicians or groups - if you are eligible, vote.

Few times have there been so many alternatives to register to vote. With La Red Hispana you can do it by sending a text message with the word VOTE to 52886. It is the first step to claim your right to define your future.

OPINION: CANNABIS TAX REVENUES ARE GOING TO POLICE BUDGETS, NOT COMMUNITIES Sarah-Michael Gaston and Juliet Sims California Health Report

20 for early childhood education and intervention programs, a homeless shelter and the Whole Person Care program, which provides comprehensive case-management services to those experiencing homelessness, or who have mental health issues, substance use disorders or multiple chronic diseases.

A

s cries to “defund the police” reverberate across the country, cities are looking at ways to shift funds from policing into communities.

In California, tax revenues from marijuana should be a clear point of entry. When voters legalized cannabis in 2016, they expected the taxes would be invested in communities that were adversely impacted by the war on drugs. Instead, a new report finds that these revenues are actually funding the police.

The report, California Cannabis Tax Revenues: A Windfall for Law Enforcement or An Opportunity for Healing, which was authored by Youth Forward and Getting It Right from the Start, looks at 28 cities across California that collect cannabis-related tax revenue. It turns out that from the time Proposition 64 was passed to fiscal year 2019-20, 23 of the 28 cities analyzed saw double-digit increases in the amount of general-fund money going into their police budgets. Eight of the 28 cities saw their police budgets grow by at least 25 percent. Overall, the average shift in police budgets for these 28 cities was an increase of 19 percent over that three-year period.

A cannabis dispensary in San Francisco, which is one of a handful of cities in California that is working to help communities of color capture some of the wealth generated by the cannabis industry, according to the report cited by the authors. Photo Credit: David Tran.

Law enforcement is now beginning to “crack down” on unlicensed vendors, most of whom are people of color. For example, San Diego uses cannabis tax revenues for “enforcement of marijuana laws” and “proactively cracking down on illegal operators.” And Los Angeles allocates millions of their revenues toward the police overtime fund to “investigate and enforce laws relative to illegal cannabis businesses” among other law enforcement functions.

The tragic irony of this is that cannabis tax revenues are now continuing the historic pattern of arrests for nonviolent drug offenses

that have disproportionately harmed communities of color for decades.

As recently as 2013, Black people were arrested more than twice as often as white people for cannabis offenses, and by 2018 people of color comprised 75 percent of cannabis arrests. Though marijuana use is roughly equal among Blacks and whites, Blacks are nearly 4 times as likely to be arrested for marijuana possession.

We need to ensure that cannabis tax revenues go toward policies, practices and services that repair harm rather than increase it.

While the state government

has invested some cannabis tax revenues into funding for job training, mental health, legal services and other community needs, cities can and should do better. Local policymakers should take the following actions: • Invest cannabis revenues in the communities most impacted by the war on drugs. Prop 64 revenues should prioritize communities most impacted by the war on drugs, particularly African American communities, as well as Latinx and immigrant communities that have suffered disproportionate arrests and convictions for marijuana-related

and other drug crimes. For decades, this inequitable enforcement regime drove families into poverty, separated parents and children, and placed huge obstacles to gaining employment, securing housing, and pursuing education for those with felony drug convictions— all of which contribute to health inequities.

• Fund communities, not police. These investments should seek to improve health and wellbeing, reduce inequity, and prevent the risk or likelihood of experiencing substance misuse and addiction. For example, Monterey County used their cannabis revenues in 2019-

One reason for this is that the revenue collected from cannabis in nearly all these cities (the one exception being Shasta Lake) goes into the general fund, where the largest chunk of spending goes toward police departments. Another reason is that a number of cities are directing these tax revenues toward special units focused on cannabis enforcement, setting the stage for a war on drugs 2.0.

• Increase economic opportunities for Black and Brown communities.

Many communities of color that have been hit hard by the war on drugs are home to people who are struggling to get access to jobs due to prior convictions for drug offenses. Local officials should expand programs to help people with prior convictions to expunge their criminal records. People who have their records cleared can experience up to a 33 percent increase in their earning potential. Additionally, going forward, the state should prioritize these communities in all cannabis licensing opportunities.

As our country grapples with its history of racism, and especially its expression in the form of police violence, we should not pad police budgets with cannabis tax revenues.

Those funds should go toward housing security, job training, mental health programs, youth development and other policies that create true health and safety in the communities traumatized by the racist war on drugs.

OPINIÓN: LOS INGRESOS POR IMPUESTOS AL CANNABIS VAN A LOS PRESUPUESTOS POLICIALES, NO A LAS COMUNIDADES Sarah-Michael Gaston y Juliet Sims Informe de salud de California

A

medida que los gritos para "desbancar a la policía" resuenan en todo el país, las ciudades están buscando formas de transferir fondos de la policía a las comunidades. En California, los ingresos fiscales de la marihuana deberían ser un punto de entrada claro. Cuando los votantes legalizaron el cannabis en 2016, esperaban que los impuestos se invirtieran en comunidades que se vieron negativamente afectadas por la guerra contra las drogas. En cambio, un nuevo informe encuentra que estos ingresos realmente están financiando a la policía.

El informe, California Cannabis Tax Revenues: A Windfall for Law Enforcement or An Opportunity for Healing, creado por Youth Forward and Getting It Right from the Start, analiza 28 ciudades de California que recaudan ingresos fiscales relacionados con el cannabis.

Resulta que desde el momento en que se aprobó la Proposición 64 hasta el año fiscal 2019-20, 23 de las 28 ciudades analizadas vieron aumentos de dos dígitos en la cantidad de dinero del fondo general que ingresó en sus presupuestos policiales. Ocho de las 28 ciudades vieron crecer sus presupuestos policiales en al menos un 25 por ciento. En general, el cambio promedio en los presupuestos policiales para estas 28 ciudades fue un aumento del 19 por ciento durante ese perío-

do de tres años.

Una razón para esto es que los ingresos recaudados por el cannabis en casi todas estas ciudades (la única excepción es Shasta Lake) se destinan al fondo general, donde la mayor parte del gasto se destina a los departamentos de policía. Otra razón es que varias ciudades están dirigiendo estos ingresos fiscales hacia unidades especiales centradas en la aplicación de cannabis, preparando el escenario para una guerra contra las drogas 2.0.

La policía ahora está comenzando a "tomar medidas enérgicas" contra los vendedores sin licencia, la mayoría de los cuales son personas de color.

Por ejemplo, San Diego utiliza los ingresos por impuestos al cannabis para "hacer cumplir las leyes de marihuana" y "tomar medidas enérgicas contra los operadores ilegales".

Y Los Ángeles asigna millones de sus ingresos al fondo de horas extras de la policía para "investigar y hacer cumplir las leyes

relativas a los negocios ilegales de cannabis" entre otras funciones de aplicación de la ley.

La trágica ironía de esto es que los ingresos por impuestos al cannabis ahora continúan con el patrón histórico de arrestos por delitos de drogas no violentos que han perjudicado desproporcionadamente a las comunidades de color durante décadas.

En 2013, los negros fueron arrestados más del doble de veces que los blancos por delitos de cannabis, y en 2018 las personas de color representaban el 75 por ciento de los arrestos por cannabis. Aunque el consumo de marihuana es aproximadamente igual entre negros y blancos, los negros tienen casi 4 veces más probabilidades de ser arrestados por posesión de marihuana.

Necesitamos asegurarnos de que los ingresos por impuestos al cannabis se destinen a políticas, prácticas y servicios que reparen el daño en lugar de aumentarlo. Si bien el gobierno estatal

ha invertido algunos ingresos por impuestos al cannabis en fondos para capacitación laboral, salud mental, servicios legales y otras necesidades de la comunidad, las ciudades pueden y deben hacerlo mejor. Los formuladores de políticas locales deben tomar las siguientes acciones: • Invierta los ingresos del cannabis en las comunidades más afectadas por la guerra contra las drogas. Los ingresos de la Proposición 64 deberían priorizar las comunidades más afectadas por la guerra contra las drogas, en particular las comunidades afroamericanas, así como las comunidades latinas e inmigrantes que han sufrido arrestos y condenas desproporcionadas por delitos relacionados con la marihuana y otros delitos relacionados con drogas. Durante décadas, este régimen de aplicación inequitativo condujo a las familias a la pobreza, separó a padres e hijos, y colocó enormes obstáculos para obtener

empleo, obtener vivienda y buscar educación para aquellos con condenas por delitos graves de drogas, todo lo cual contribuye a las inequidades en la salud.

• Financiar comunidades, no policías. Estas inversiones deben buscar mejorar la salud y el bienestar, reducir la inequidad y prevenir el riesgo o la probabilidad de experimentar abuso de sustancias y adicción.

Por ejemplo, el Condado de Monterey usó sus ingresos de cannabis en 2019-20 para programas de educación e intervención de la primera infancia, un refugio para personas sin hogar y el programa Whole Person Care, que brinda servicios integrales de gestión de casos a las personas sin hogar o que tienen problemas de salud mental, trastornos por uso de sustancias o múltiples enfermedades crónicas.

• Aumentar las oportunidades económicas para las comunidades negras y marrones. Muchas comu-

nidades de color que han sido duramente afectadas por la guerra contra las drogas son el hogar de personas que luchan por obtener acceso a empleos debido a condenas previas por delitos de drogas. Los funcionarios locales deben ampliar los programas para ayudar a las personas con condenas anteriores a eliminar sus antecedentes penales. Las personas que tienen sus registros borrados pueden experimentar un aumento de hasta un 33 por ciento en su potencial de ingresos.

Además, en el futuro, el estado debería priorizar estas comunidades en todas las oportunidades de licencias de cannabis.

A medida que nuestro país lidia con su historia de racismo, y especialmente su expresión en forma de violencia policial, no debemos rellenar los presupuestos policiales con los ingresos fiscales del cannabis. Esos fondos deben destinarse a la seguridad de la vivienda, capacitación laboral, programas de salud mental, desarrollo juvenil y otras políticas que crean verdadera salud y seguridad en las comunidades traumatizadas por la guerra racista contra las drogas.

s businesses and services reopen nationwide, the death toll from COVID-19 continues to rise, and experts warn that Americans must continue taking precautions to help stop the spread of the virus.

“In states across the country, the spread of COVID-19 is staggering and concerning. We all have a role to play in stopping the spread and protecting ourselves, our family and our neighbors,” says Susan R. Bailey, M.D., president of the American Medical Association (AMA).

“The science is clear. We know what stops the spread of the virus – wearing cloth face masks, physical distancing and regularly washing hands -- and it is on all of us to practice these steps. Without a vaccine for this novel virus, the only way to turn the tide and recapture a sense of normal is by working together.”

The AMA offers the following guidance and insights that can help keep you, your friends, and your loved ones healthy and safe.

• Wear a cloth face mask: Take the simple steps that science has shown will help stop the spread of the virus: wearing a cloth face mask, maintaining physical distancing, and washing your hands. The simplest tried-and-true methods are still the most important.

• Keep up with doctor visits: Before you decide to forgo routine care or screenings, talk to your doctor. Physicians are using telehealth services and have taken painstaking precautions to make their practices safe. Make sure you keep up with your vaccines, and don’t let something that in normal circumstances could be handled with an early visit to your physician land you in the hospital.

• Be mindful that re-opening is not the same as a return to normal: When indoors, wear a mask, even in restaurants and stores that are open.

Consider dining outdoors whenever possible.

Stay connected with friends and family, but do so in a physically-distant and safe manner, including small outdoors gatherings where masks and hand sanitizer are used.

• Take time to clear your head and rest: With many people working from home or working

under more stressful conditions, it is important to take mental health breaks. Get up and move, take a walk outside, step away from the computer, and take days or hours off from work.

As the death toll from COVID-19 continues to rise, physicians, nurses, hospital and health system leaders, researchers and public health experts want Americans to know that it is within their power to help stop the spread of the virus.

medida que las empresas y los servicios se vuelven a abrir en todo el país, el número de muertos por COVID-19 continúa aumentando, y los expertos advierten que los estadounidenses deben seguir tomando precauciones para ayudar a detener la propagación del virus.

“En los estados de todo el país, la propagación de COVID-19 es asombrosa y preocupante. Todos tenemos un papel que desempeñar para detener

la propagación y protegernos a nosotros mismos, a nuestra familia y a nuestros vecinos”, dice Susan R. Bailey, M.D., presidenta de la Asociación Médica Estadounidense (AMA). “La ciencia es clara. Sabemos qué detiene la propagación del virus: usar máscaras faciales de tela, distanciamiento físico y lavarse las manos regularmente, y todos tenemos que practicar estos pasos. Sin una vacuna para este nuevo virus, la única forma de cambiar el rumbo y recuperar la sensación de normalidad es trabajando juntos”.

La AMA ofrece la siguiente orientación y conocimientos que pueden ayudarlo a mantenerse sano y seguro a usted, a sus amigos y a sus seres queridos.

• Use una máscara facial de tela: siga los sencillos pasos que la ciencia ha demostrado que ayudará a detener la propagación del virus: usar una máscara facial de tela, mantener el distanciamiento físico y lavarse las manos. Los métodos más simples y probados siguen siendo los más importantes.

• Manténgase al día con las visitas al médico: antes de que decida renunciar a la atención de rutina o las pruebas de detección, hable con su médico.

Los médicos están utilizando los servicios de telesalud y han tomado precauciones minuciosas para que sus prácticas sean seguras. Asegúrese de mantenerse al día con sus vacunas, y no permita que algo que, en circunstancias normales, podría manejarse con una visita temprana a su médico lo lleve al hospital.

• Tenga en cuenta que volver a abrir no es lo mismo que volver a la normalidad: cuando esté en interiores, use una máscara, incluso en restaurantes y tiendas que estén abiertos. Considere cenar al aire libre siempre que sea posible. Manténgase conectado con amigos y familiares, pero hágalo de una manera físicamente distante y segura, incluidas pequeñas reuniones al aire libre donde se usan máscaras y desinfectante para manos.

• Tómese el tiempo para despejar la cabeza y descansar: con muchas personas trabajando desde casa o en condiciones más estresantes, es importante tomar descansos para la salud mental.

Levántese y muévase, salga a caminar, aléjese de la computadora y tome días u horas libres del trabajo.

A medida que el número de muertos por COVID-19 continúa aumentando, los médicos, enfermeras, líderes de hospitales y sistemas de salud, investigadores y expertos en salud pública quieren que los estadounidenses sepan que está a su alcance ayudar a detener la propagación del virus.

ACRAMENTO, Calif. -- California families of color are bearing the brunt of the pandemic while also working many of the jobs essential to the economy, so advocates are urging the U.S. Senate to make sure their basic needs are met.

The House passed the $3 trillion HEROES Act in May, but the Senate has yet to act on the legislation. Gabriella Barbosa, policy director at The Children's Partnership, said without help, many families face irreparable harm to their health and well-being.

"So we really want Congress to include supports around food, housing, access to health care and income supports in the next iteration of federal legislation around the pandemic," Barbosa said.

Advocates want legislators to approve $1,200 a month in cash relief to families, including immigrants and mixed-status families. They're also calling for $100 billion in emergency rental assistance and a 14% increase in the amount the feds pay states in Medicaid matching funds.

Deborah Weinstein is executive director of the nonprofit Coalition on Human Needs.

She said Congress needs to take bold action before federal unemployment benefits and the eviction moratorium run out.

"We have not experienced anything like this for 100 years. We've got a stubborn disease that is keeping our economy from functioning the way it should," Weinstein said. "We cannot let our families suffer in this way. The consequences to children are so grave."

Weinstein also is calling for $1 trillion in aid to state and local governments in order to stave off huge cuts in Medi-Cal, education and social services. Senate Republicans are in favor of a relief bill that would provide direct stimulus payments to Americans and relief for businesses.

También están pidiendo $ 100 mil millones en asistencia de alquiler de emergencia y un aumento del 14% en la cantidad que los federales pagan a los estados en fondos de contrapartida de Medicaid.

Deborah Weinstein es directora ejecutiva de la organización sin fines de lucro Coalition on Human Needs. Ella dijo que el Congreso debe tomar medidas audaces antes de que se acaben los beneficios federales de desempleo y la moratoria de desalojo.

"No hemos experimentado algo así en 100 años. Tenemos una enfermedad obstinada que impide que nuestra economía funcione como debería", dijo Weinstein. "No podemos dejar que nuestras familias sufran de esta manera. Las consecuencias para los niños son tan graves".

Weinstein también está pidiendo $ 1 billón en ayuda a los gobiernos estatales y locales para evitar grandes recortes en Medi-Cal, educación y servicios sociales. Los republicanos del Senado están a favor de un proyecto de ley de alivio que proporcionaría pagos de estímulo directo a los estadounidenses y alivio para las empresas.

uadalajara, México - Antes de COVID-19, Denisse Rodríguez esperaba una boda de ensueño en un hotel en la playa de Puerto Vallarta con cientos de invitados, pero la realidad de la vida durante una pandemia ha obligado a la novia y al prometido Martín García para ajustar sus expectativas.

"Ha habido muchos cambios. Entre otras cosas, tuvimos que hacer una reducción en los invitados. La lista inicial era de 150 personas y ahora será de 60. Solo 50 personas pueden ir a misa", le dice a EFE. "E hicimos un kit de prevención para los invitados con una máscara facial y un vaso para cada persona".

Ante la sugerencia de organizar las nupcias del 6 de noviembre, la recepción contará con dos pistas de baile separadas para acomodar el distanciamiento social.

Sin embargo, incluso una boda reducida puede estar fuera del alcance si las autoridades mexicanas deciden volver a imponer un bloqueo para frenar la propagación del coronavirus.

Denisse y Martin han decidido que se casarán el 6 de noviembre cuando llegue el infierno o el apogeo.

"Creo que irá a una hermosa fiesta a pesar de lo que estamos experimentando porque tendremos a nuestras familias y amigos más cercanos para celebrar nuestra unión como pareja", dijo Denisse.

En México, donde COVID-19 se ha cobrado más de 44,000 vidas e infectado a 395,000 personas en total, la pandemia está frenando no solo las bodas, sino también las "quinceañeras", las grandes fiestas tradicionales para celebrar el 15 cumpleaños de una niña.

Los eventos sociales como bodas y quinceañeras son fundamentales para la vida mexicana y la base de una industria de "celebraciones" (tiendas que venden ropa formal, salones de banquetes, fotógrafos y músicos)

que ha perdido millones de dólares debido a la pandemia.

Carolina Vázquez, fundadora y directora de Ragazza Fashion, fabricante de vestidos de quinceañera con sede en Guadalajara, le dijo a EFE que las ventas de su compañía se desplomaron en un 90 por ciento durante el cierre.

Una vez que se relajaron las restricciones, las tiendas Ragazza volvieron a abrirse con protocolos de pandemia, mientras que Vázquez y el resto del equipo de diseño comenzaron a crear máscaras faciales a juego para los vestidos, que se venden a precios al norte de $ 1,000.

"El negocio tiene que reinventarse con un grado de protección, los seres humanos estamos destinados a una vida en sociedad. Es difícil pensar cómo se puede celebrar una celebración alegre, jubilosa e íntima con esto (la pandemia), pero hemos visto que los clientes y nosotros como marca hemos podido superar eso ", dijo Vázquez.

El peligro de contagio no es suficiente para reprimir el amor de los mexicanos por las fiestas y celebraciones, dijo.

Mónica Robles, una organizadora de bodas y gerente de un salón de banquetes en el suburbio de Guadalajara de Tlajomulco, dijo que muchos clientes tuvieron que cancelar bodas y fiestas porque perdieron sus empleos.

"Si bien podemos celebrar eventos, estas personas fueron heridas por la pandemia: sus salarios cayeron, fueron despedidos y no tienen forma de pagarnos", dijo. "El problema para ellos es el dinero y tienen que reprogramar para el próximo año".

Un fotógrafo especializado en bodas, David Valdovinos, le dijo a EFE que ha visto una "diferencia brutal" en su negocio.

Muchas parejas prefieren posponer sus nupcias hasta la primavera o el verano de 2021 con la esperanza de que "todo vuelva a la normalidad" que conformarse con algo menos que su boda ideal, dijo.

tographers, and musicians - that has lost millions of dollars due to the pandemic.

uadalajara, Mexico - Before COVID-19, Denisse Rodriguez was looking forward to a dream wedding at a hotel on the beach in Puerto Vallarta with hundreds of guests, but the realities of life during a pandemic have forced the brideto-be and fiancé Martin Garcia to adjust their expectations.

Carolina Vazquez, the founder and director of Ragazza Fashion, a Guadalajara-based maker of quinceañera dresses, told EFE that her company's sales plummeted by 90 percent during the lockdown.

"There have been many changes. Among other things, we had to make a reduction in guests. The initial list was 150 people and now it will be 60. Only 50 people can go to the Mass," she tells EFE. "And we made a prevention kit for the guests with a face mask and a glass for each person."

At the suggestion hosting the Nov. 6 nuptials, the reception will feature two separate dance floors to accommodate social distancing.

Yet even a scaled-down wedding may be out of reach if Mexican authorities decide to re-impose a lockdown to slow the spread of coronavirus.

Denisse and Martin have decided that they will wed on Nov. 6 come hell or high water.

"I believe it's going to a beautiful party despite what we are experiencing because we will have our families and closest friends to celebrate our union as a couple," Denisse said.

In Mexico, where COVID-19 has claimed more than 44,000 lives and infected 395,000 people in all, the pandemic is putting a damper on not only weddings, but also "quinceañeras," the traditional big parties to celebrate a girl's 15th birthday.

Social events such as weddings and quinceañeras are central to Mexican life and the basis of a "celebrations" industry - stores selling formal clothing, banquet halls, pho-

Once the restrictions were eased, Ragazza stores re-opened with pandemic protocols, while Vazquez and the rest of the design team began creating matching face masks for the gowns, which sell for prices north of $1,000.

"The business has to reinvent itself with a degree of protection, we human beings are meant for a life in society. It's difficult to think how a joyous, jubilant, intimate celebration can be held with this (the pandemic), but we have seen that the clients and we as a brand have been able to get past that," Vazquez said.

The danger of contagion is not enough to suppress Mexicans' love of parties and celebrations, she said.

Monica Robles, a wedding planner, and manager of a banquet hall in the Guadalajara suburb of Tlajomulco, said that a lot of clients had to cancel weddings and parties because they lost their jobs.

"While we can hold events, these people were hurt by the pandemic: their salaries fell, they were let go and have no way to pay us," she said. "The problem for them is money and they have to reschedule for next year."

A photographer who specializes in weddings, David Valdovinos, told EFE that he has seen a "brutal difference" in his business.

Many couples prefer to postpone their nuptials until the spring or summer of 2021 in the hope that "everything returns to normal" than settle for something short of their ideal wedding, he said.

PANDEMIC LEADS TO INCREASED HOUSE ARRESTS, ELECTRONIC MONITORING

LA PANDEMIA CONDUCE A MAYORES ARRESTOS DOMICILIARIOS, MONITOREO ELECTRÓNICO

dinador de programas de la organización Freedom to Thrive, con sede en Portland, dijo que una tecnología como esta puede ser un caballo de Troya.

ORTLAND, Ore. -- House arrest might seem like a good alternative to incarceration, especially during a pandemic, but it comes with its own costs.

"Se ve muy bien por fuera y realmente genial", dijo Azubuike. "Pero cuando lo abres y entras, es la supremacía blanca, es el capitalismo y el patriarcado, y el control estatal".

Ankle shackles are outfitted for electronic monitoring, which concerns advocates for people who are detained. Babatunde Azubuike, programs coordinator for the Portland-based organization Freedom to Thrive, said technology like this can be a Trojan horse.

Azubuike dijo que algunas agencias policiales están utilizando la pandemia como justificación para expandir este tipo de encarcelamiento.

P

Un estudio de Pew encontró que cerca de 125,000 personas fueron supervisadas con dispositivos electrónicos en 2015, un 140% más que una década antes.

"It looks really nice on the outside and really great," Azubuike said. "But when you open it up and get inside, it's white supremacy, it's capitalism and patriarchy, and state control."

Azubuike señaló que hay sanciones que la gente no puede considerar al elegir el arresto domiciliario en lugar del encarcelamiento, como pagar por el monitor, que puede costar hasta $ 400 por mes.

Azubuike said some law enforcement agencies are using the pandemic as justification to expand this kind of incarceration.

A Pew study found about 125,000 people were supervised with electronic devices in 2015, up 140% from a decade earlier.

Azubuike pointed out there are penalties people might not think about when choosing house arrest over incarceration, such as paying for the monitor, which can cost up to $400 a month.

"If you miss those payments, you're out of compliance and then, that can be cause for you to go right back into jail or prison," Azubuike said. "It puts you in this position where, again, people are being penalized for being poor."

"Si no cumple con esos pagos, está incumpliendo y eso puede ser causa de que vuelva a la cárcel o prisión", dijo Azubuike. "Te pone en esta posición donde, nuevamente, las personas están siendo penalizadas por ser pobres".

Azubuike dijo que las decisiones sobre monitoreo electrónico y cómo se implementan suceden a nivel local.

"I think the best way to push back is to definitely get involved in a lot of these budget fights around how the police budgets are spent, and where your local money is going for these technologies," Azubuike added.

STALLED BY COVID-19, CENSUS WORKERS SEEK OUT HARD-TO-REACH AMERICANS

In Nevada, undocumented immigrants comprised 11% of Nevada's workforce in 2016.

AS VEGAS - Once every decade, the U.S. Constitution mandates that every person be counted as part of the census, but so far, nearly 40% of American households have not completed the 2020 form.

The coronavirus pandemic delayed the start of this year's count, and many hard-to-reach populations haven't participated -- including lower-income households, people of color and young people.

Cathy Lacy, who directs the U.S. Census Bureau's Denver and Dallas regional centers, said expanded options allow people to go online, call the bureau or complete the paper questionnaire sent to their home.

Donald Trump's memorandum to exclude undocumented immigrants from being counted in this year's census. Nevada has the most undocumented immigrants of any state, accounting for 7% of the U.S. total in 2016.

Lacy said census data is used to allocate more than $1.5 trillion in federal funds to programs such as Medicare, Medicaid and Head Start, as well as schools, hospitals and infrastructure projects.

"If people drive on any highway or road," she said, "it's either funded through federal funds or they use the census data in order to plan for the building of that road or that highway."

"This is an essential activity for the federal government and for the local communities, and we only do this once a decade," she said. "So, once a decade, we ask people to invest 10 minutes into their future."

In a surprise move last week, the Trump administration asked that $448 million be set aside in the next coronavirus relief package to speed up the census count. The move alarmed critics, who believe the administration wants the data to facilitate political reapportionment by year's end. They warn that rushing the process could result in an inaccurate population count.

Last Friday, the Nevada attorney general joined a coalition of states in a lawsuit against President

AS VEGAS: una vez cada década, la Constitución de los EE. UU. Exige que cada persona se cuente como parte del censo, pero hasta ahora, casi el 40% de los hogares estadounidenses no ha completado el formulario 2020.

La pandemia de coronavirus retrasó el inicio del conteo de este año, y muchas poblaciones de difícil acceso no han participado, incluidos los hogares de bajos ingresos, las personas de color y los jóvenes.

Cathy Lacy, quien dirige los centros regionales de Denver y Dallas de la Oficina del Censo de EE. UU., Dijo que las opciones ampliadas permiten a las personas conectarse, llamar a la oficina o completar el cuestionario en papel enviado a su hogar.

"Esta es una actividad esencial para el gobierno federal y las comunidades locales, y solo hacemos esto una vez por década", dijo. "Entonces, una vez por década, pedimos a las personas que inviertan 10 minutos en su futuro".

El viernes pasado, el fiscal general de Nevada se unió a una coalición de estados en una demanda contra el memorándum del presidente Donald

Trump para excluir a los inmigrantes indocumentados de ser contados en el censo de este año.

Nevada tiene la mayoría de los inmigrantes indocumentados de cualquier estado, representando el 7% del total de los EE. UU. En 2016.

Lacy dijo que los datos del censo se usan para asignar más de $ 1.5 billones en fondos federales a programas como Medicare, Medicaid y Head Start, así como a escuelas, hospitales y proyectos de infraestructura.

"Si las personas conducen en cualquier carretera o camino", dijo, "se financia a través de fondos federales o utilizan los datos del censo para planificar la construcción de ese camino o de esa carretera".

En un movimiento sorpresivo la semana pasada, la administración Trump solicitó que se ahorren $ 448 millones en el próximo paquete de alivio de coronavirus para acelerar el conteo del censo. La medida alarmó a los críticos, quienes creen que la administración quiere que los datos faciliten la reubicación política para fin de año. Advierten que apurar el proceso podría resultar en un recuento de población inexacto.

hile we don’t know for sure whether mountain gorillas or other great apes are susceptible to coronavirus, no one wants to find out.

Damian Carrington reports in The Guardian that the coronavirus could potentially wipe out already threatened populations of chimpanzees, gorillas and orangutans — our closest living relatives with whom we share 98 percent of our DNA. “Even pathogens producing mild symptoms in humans have been lethal to great apes in the past,” reports Carrington. “The fact that Covid-19 is fatal for some humans leads experts to fear it could potentially prove devastating to great apes.”

To date, no great apes are known to have contracted the coronavirus. Those humans who study and protect them would like to keep it that way. As a result, wildlife tourism across Africa is temporarily shut down.

How long “temporary” may be is anybody’s guess at this point, but conservationists fear it could set back their efforts by decades if not put them “out of business”entirely.

“The suspension of ecotourism during the coronavirus pandemic has also meant the main source of revenue for gorilla conservation has been lost and there are fears some of those in surrounding communities who depend on tourists could turn to poaching out of desperation,” reports Jack Losh in The Guardian.

Meanwhile, the story is much the same all across Africa, where governments have suspended all tourism. Ann Gibbons reports for Science that researchers at wildlife reserves across Africa face new challenges in the age of coronavirus. The 130 wildlife

rangers at Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park are now briefed regularly on how to keep coronavirus away from gorillas and how to monitor wildlife for signs of the sickness.

At another Ugandan reserve, Taï and Kibale, researchers must quarantine for 14 days before they are allowed anywhere near the wild gorilla population under study there, And once researchers can get closer, they still must, in the words of Gibbons, “change their clothes and take their temperatures before they go into the forest, wear masks, and keep their distance.” Researchers there have also test chimps’ feces for COVID-19 and other viruses.

“Habitat loss and poaching are big threats to the survival of great apes, but viruses are also a concern,” adds Briggs. “Infectious disease is now listed among the top three threats to some great ape groups.” Indeed, past research has shown that chimps can contract the common cold virus, while Ebola is thought to be responsible for thousands of wild chip and gorilla deaths across Africa. Could coronavirus be the death knell for these and other iconic wildlife species?

i bien no sabemos con certeza si los gorilas de montaña u otros grandes simios son susceptibles al coronavirus, nadie quiere saberlo. Damian Carrington informa en The Guardian que el coronavirus podría acabar con las poblaciones ya amenazadas de chimpancés, gorilas y orangutanes, nuestros parientes vivos más cercanos con quienes compartimos el 98 por ciento de nuestro ADN. "Incluso los patógenos que producen síntomas leves en humanos han sido letales para los grandes simios en el pasado", informa Carrington. "El hecho de que Covid-19 sea fatal para algunos humanos lleva a los expertos a temer que podría resultar devastador para los grandes simios".

Hasta la fecha, no se sabe que ningún gran simio haya contraído el coronavirus. A los humanos que los estudian y los protegen les gustaría mantenerlo así. Como resultado, el turismo de vida silvestre en África se cierra temporalmente. En este momento, nadie puede adivinar qué tan "temporal" puede ser, pero los conservacionistas temen que pueda retrasar sus esfuerzos por décadas si no los pone "fuera del negocio" por completo.

"La suspensión del ecoturismo durante la pandemia de coronavirus también ha significado que la principal fuente de ingresos para la conservación del gorila se ha perdido y existe el temor de que algunas de las comunidades vecinas que dependen de los turistas puedan recurrir a la caza furtiva por desesperación", informa Jack Losh en El Guardian.

Mientras tanto, la historia es muy similar en toda África, donde los gobiernos han suspendido todo el turismo. Ann Gibbons informa para Science que los investigadores de las reservas de vida silvestre en África enfrentan nuevos desafíos en la era del coronavirus. Los 130 guardabosques de vida silvestre en el Parque Nacional Impen-

etrable de Bwindi, en Uganda, reciben información periódica sobre cómo mantener el coronavirus alejado de los gorilas y cómo monitorear la vida silvestre para detectar signos de la enfermedad.

En otra reserva ugandesa, Taï y Kibale, los investigadores deben poner en cuarentena durante 14 días antes de que se les permita acercarse a la población de gorilas salvajes que se está estudiando allí, y una vez que los investigadores puedan acercarse, aún deben, en palabras de Gibbons, "cambiarse de ropa y tómese la temperatura antes de ir al bosque, use máscaras y mantenga su distancia ". Los investigadores también han examinado las heces de chimpancés para detectar COVID-19 y otros virus.

"La pérdida de hábitat y la caza furtiva son grandes amenazas para la supervivencia de los grandes simios, pero los virus también son una preocupación", agrega Briggs.

"Las enfermedades infecciosas ahora figuran entre las tres principales amenazas para algunos grandes grupos de simios". De hecho, investigaciones anteriores han demostrado que los chimpancés pueden contraer el virus del resfriado común, mientras que se cree que el Ébola es responsable de miles de muertes de chips y gorilas salvajes en África. ¿Podría el coronavirus ser la sentencia de muerte para estas y otras especies icónicas de vida silvestre?

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. 9.

You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

A Petition for Probate has been filed by Anna Echaluce in the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara. 3.

The Petition for Probate requests that Anna Echaluce be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

5. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions

without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. 6. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: August 12, 2020, at 9:01am, Dept. 13, located at 191 North First Street, San Jose, CA 95113. 7. If you object to the granting of this petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. 8.

If you are a creditor or contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either: 1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or 2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. 9.

You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.
