They just want to party, and ladies and germs are both invited.

Wait. Plague is bad? It was all the rage a few years ago.

"The plague is a lie." A participant .. insisted the plague risk had been exaggerated: "The government in power is short of money for the next presidential poll (in 2018), so they invent things to get cash from lenders,"

El Dio De Los Muertos or Day of the Dead in Mexico and the Southwest States is a gala affair where Spanish families clean and decorate graves, light candles, dress in bright costumes, play music, eat large meals and drink a lot. They celebrate the lives the deceased lived.
Anyone digging up a grave would be in trouble plenty.
