President López Obrador announced he would sign two decrees to contribute to Mexico’s recovery. The first decree is that on Nov. 9, state workers will receive half of their “aguinaldo” (end-of-the-year bonus). The second will seek to provide MX$500 million (US$24.15 million) in financial support to businesses and customers for the shopping season. The decree was published today on the Official Journal of the Federation (DOF) and details those who will receive an advance on their bonus. 

Buen Fin 2020 is expected to exceed MX$117 billion (US$5.6 billion) in sales. The Mexican Black Friday event will be extended beyond a weekend and will last from Nov. 9 to Nov. 20.

Long Home-Office Hours Disrupt Sleep

Marco Tulio Garza González, neuropsychologist, professor and researcher at the School of Psychology (FaPsi) of Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León (UANL), indicated that the body has failed to relate the bed to sleep because of the unconventional practices of people in times of pandemic (using the bed to eat, study or work), which increases insomnia and anxiety. "Because of the pandemic and home office, many schedules have been turned around and cycles of sleeping and waking are altered," Garza told Milenio Noticias.
