Overview
- External consultations at the new ISSSTE Regional Hospital in Acapulco are set to start on August 25, with full operation targeted within roughly two months as hiring of medical and nursing staff continues.
- The IMSS‑Bienestar General Hospital in Tlapa, visited by Sheinbaum with Governor Evelyn Salgado, is slated to serve about 400,000 residents of La Montaña after reported investments of roughly 2.2–2.4 billion pesos plus equipment; officials have linked its financing to proceeds from the presidential plane sale.
- ISSSTE leaders report the Acapulco high‑specialty facility exceeds 3 billion pesos in cost and features around 250 beds, eight operating rooms, a linear accelerator, MRI, hemodynamics and dozens of specialties in a complex built on the former convention center site.
- Sheinbaum also launched Senderos de Paz public‑space works and presided over the Marinabús flag‑off as part of the Acapulco se Transforma Contigo recovery package, alongside this year’s planned 7,000 million pesos for water, drainage and treatment projects.
- Local media documented ongoing community blockades in Guerrero during the visit, reporting that Sheinbaum and the governor departed Tlapa by helicopter to avoid a highway protest, underscoring access and operational risks.
