Mpox emergency among festival-goers in Zipolite, Oaxaca, all the details of this outbreak here in PueblaNews.

An outbreak of Mpox (monkeypox) has been identified among festival-goers in Zipolite, Oaxaca, prompting a health clinic to issue a health emergency notice.

What happened in Zipolite?

The Condesa Specialized Clinic , based in Mexico City (CDMX) , issued a statement warning about cases of Mpox detected in people who attended a festival in Zipolite, Oaxaca , between January 31 and February 3, 2025 .

💡 Mpox (formerly known as monkeypox) is a viral disease that is transmitted primarily through close physical contact , such as kissing, hugging, and sexual intercourse.

What are the symptoms of Mpox?

If you attended the festival on those dates and had physical contact with other people, it is important to be aware of the following symptoms:

🔹 Fever
🔹 Skin lesions (in genital, anal areas or any part of the body)
🔹 Sore throat
🔹 Symptoms similar to other sexually transmitted infections (STIs)

📌 If you have any of these symptoms, it is recommended that you go to a health clinic to receive medical attention and prevent the spread of the virus.

How long does it take for the disease to manifest?

The incubation period for Mpox is up to 21 days . If this time has passed since the festival and you have not shown symptoms, there is no risk associated with this exposure .

⚠️ Although the situation does not represent a serious alarm, the clinic emphasizes the importance of monitoring sexual health and self-care.

to me

Hola my Mexico-loving friends!

This month's email comes to you as I prepare to return to beautiful (and warm and sunny!) Mexico in a few days.

I'm headed to a new-to-me city and state, Veracruz (my 22nd Mexican state!). I'm excited to spend a few days there before I begin a bigger adventure that will take me around some off-the-beaten-path spots around the state of Oaxaca, finishing in the beautiful capital city of the same name.

I haven't been to Oaxaca since 2018. I'm intrigued to see how much it has changed and to enjoy the incredible food culture of Mexico's culinary capital.

Of course, I'll be sharing live updates from the road on Instagram and Facebook and once I'm home I'll be writing about it on my blog and sharing videos on YouTube. I can't wait to explore more of this magical country!

Renowned artist and singer Lady Gaga has thrilled her Mexican fans by announcing an exciting 

concert in Mexico. 

This news has generated great excitement throughout the country, since Lady Gaga is known 

for her spectacular talent and unforgettable live performances. 

This highly anticipated concert marks Lady Gaga's return to Mexico after several years of 

absence. The artist last performed in the country during her successful "The Born This 

Way Ball Tour" in 2012. 

Since then, Mexican fans have been eagerly awaiting his return to the Mexican stages. 

Lady Gaga will bring the best of her tour on April 26, 2025 to the GNP Seguros Stadium in 

Mexico City, where she will perform hits from her albums 'The Fame Monster', 'Born This 

Way', 'Artpop', 'Chromatica' and her new album 'Mayhem' 

Lady Gaga's concerts are known for their extravagance, energy and commitment to delivering 

an unforgettable show. 

The artist has earned a reputation for her passionate performances, which include dazzling 

costumes, striking choreography and a powerful voice that captivates her audience. 

Lady Gaga's ticket sales will be handled by Ticketmaster and Ocesa. The Citibanamex presale 

will take place on March 6th starting at 2:00 p.m. It should be noted that it will be available only to cardholders of that bank. 

General tickets will go on sale 24 hours later, on March 7 at 2:00 p.m. Tickets can be

As for ticket prices, based on information from specialized media, it is estimated that they 

will range between $1,210 and $6,335 Mexican pesos, including service charges, although

years exploring other projects, such as her Las Vegas residency “Jazz & Piano,” the film Joker: 

Folie à Deux, and the companion album Harlequin (regarded by her as “LG6.5”). 

According to her fans, the singer has performed these songs in her recent performances, so

Huatulco police implicated in murder of four young men from Tlaxcala

Puebla, Pue., Municipal police from Huatulco could be linked to the disappearance and murder of four young people from Tlaxcala, whose bodies were among nine found last Sunday in an abandoned vehicle on the Cuacnopalan – Oaxaca highway, near the Puebla municipality of San José Miahuatlán, reported sources close to the case.

They explained that Brenda Mariel Salas, 19 years old – who was part of the group of travelers sought in Oaxaca since February 27, and who was found alive on a highway in Puebla last Monday – declared that she and Angie Lizeth Pérez García, 29 years old, were deprived of their liberty by alleged agents of Huatulco, who beat them, and then abandoned her alone on a road.

According to this version, both women would have been picked up when leaving the Jocha Lodging, owned by José Alfredo Lavariega Canseco, who in 2021 ran for mayor of Huatulco under the banner of the Social Encounter Party and last Sunday morning was shot while driving his private vehicle.

Oaxaca Governor Salomón Jara Cruz announced that next Friday there will be a meeting between prosecutors and heads of Public Security areas of that entity and Puebla in order to advance the investigation of the case.

According to ministry sources, four of the nine bodies found in Puebla on Sunday night correspond to the Tlaxcalans reported missing while vacationing on the beaches of Huatulco and Zipolite.

They are Raúl Emmanuel González Lozano, 28 years old; Lesly Noya Trejo, 21; Angie Lizeth Pérez García, 29, and Jacqueline Ailet Meza Cázares, 23, originally from the municipalities of Yauhquemehcan, Tzompantepec and Apizaco.

Investigating the whereabouts of 4

Meanwhile, the whereabouts of Noemí Yamileth López Moratilla, 28; Rolando Armando Evaristo, 22; Rubén Antonio Ramos Flores, 22, and Uriel Calva, 22, reported missing in the same area, are still being investigated.

Authorities are conducting the respective studies to confirm or rule out the possibility that the remains of any of them are among the bodies found in San José Miahuatlán.
