A little about Playa Zipolite, The Beach of the Dead . . .

Playa Zipolite, Oaxaca, Southern Mexico, on the Pacific Ocean. A little bit about my favorite little get-away on this small world of ours.

Zipolite, a sweaty 30-minute walk west from Puerto Angel, brings you to Playa Zipolite and another world. The feeling here is 1970's - Led Zep, Marley, and scruffy gringos.

A long, long time ago, Zipolite beach was usually visited by the Zapotecans...who made it a magical place. They came to visit Zipolite to meditate, or just to rest.

Recently, this beach has begun to receive day-trippers from Puerto Angel and Puerto Escondido, giving it a more TOURISTY feel than before.

Most people come here for the novelty of the nude beach, yoga, turtles, seafood, surf, meditation, vegetarians, discos, party, to get burnt by the sun, or to see how long they can stretch their skinny budget.

I post WWW Oaxaca, Mexico, Zipolite and areas nearby information. Also general budget, backpacker, surfer, off the beaten path, Mexico and beyond, information.

REMEMBER: Everyone is welcome at Zipolite.

The World Health Organization declared monkeypox a global emergency last week, but in the United States, where the federal response and communication around the crisis has a ways to go, many people don’t know how it spreads, what it looks like or what care they can get if they suspect they’ve been infected.

The World Health Organization declared monkeypox a global emergency last week, but in the United States, where the federal response and communication around the crisis has a ways to go, many people don’t know how it spreads, what it looks like or what care they can get if they suspect they’ve been infected.

More than two years into the COVID-19 pandemic, we’re all a little too familiar with the ways that evolving information can seem murky in the early days of an infectious disease outbreak.

MPV, however, isn’t a novel pathogen. There are resources available to treat and prevent monkeypox infection, but the effort to get those to everyone who needs them in a timely manner has so far been hampered by limited supplies and lingering logistical hurdles.

Latest research suggests the virus is largely spreading among men who have sex with men, who make up a large portion of confirmed cases. The challenge for public health officials is ensuring that people who are currently high-risk have the information and care they need to protect themselves, but without inadvertently pigeonholing monkeypox as a disease that’s exclusive to the demographics being hardest hit right now. 

See our essential monkeypox FAQ to find out how symptoms of the disease present, who is eligible to get vaccinated right now and what people can do to protect themselves and others.
