Care Problems

The rural Kumiai community of San Antonio Necua is one of the few remaining indigenous communities in Baja California, Mexico. Necuan health and health care problems are best understood through a consideration of the effects of colonialism and marginalization on indigenous groups in northern Baja California as well as a tradition of medical pluralism in Mexico. The lack of traditional healers and biomedical providers in the community, high rates of preventable or manageable illnesses, and a blend of biomedical, folk mestizo, and traditional indigenous beliefs about health and illness reflect current conditions of rural poverty and economic isolation. Descriptions of health and health care problems are based on ethnographic fieldwork among the Kumiai, their Paipai relatives, and their primary nongovernmental aid organization.

El presente articulo tiene la finalidad de mostrar la correlación entre las variables: identidad gráfica– valoración del sistema estético-comunicativo Kumiai- objeto deseado- objeto de consumo. Baja California es la tierra originaria de los pueblos Yumanos que se componen de las familias Cucapá, Kiliwa, Paipai, Cochimí y Kumiai, estos últimos tienen la peculiaridad de que su territorio original se encuentra dividido por la frontera política entre México y Estado Unidos. Es un caso especial donde se puede observar cómo la identidad del grupo ha prevalecido a través de generaciones a pesar de las circunstancias geo-sociales y de políticas internacionales, sin embargo las comunidades de ambos lados de la frontera cuentan con diferentes niveles de desarrollo social, en parte, debido al nivel de valoración, y utilización comercial de su identidad nativa. El caso de estudio se ubica en el asentamiento Kumiai del poblado de San Antonio de Necua, Baja California México, donde la comunidad cuenta con un centro eco-turístico sin la debida utilización de su estética e identidad nativa para una correcta identificación y posicionamiento de sus servicios.

The present study measured the daily, seasonal, and annual variability of the water temperature of streams in which the endemic rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss nelsoni, is distributed on the western slope of the Sierra San Pedro Mártir, Baja California, Mexico, between 1996 and 2019. The seasonal thermal interval and daily duration of summer temperatures above the thermal threshold for this trout subspecies (≥ 28°C) were determined in streams at different elevations (553, 1,220, and 2,080 masl, or meters above sea level). Temperatures ≥ 28°C were recorded at the study site on the stream with the lowest elevation (San Antonio de Murillos Creek) over an accumulated 365 h between June and September 2014, with the maximum temperature recorded there, 30.66 °C, making it the site most vulnerable to climate change. At the San Antonio de Murillos Creek, the average water temperature predicted by three models (GFDL R30, HadCM3, and Mote) for the year 2025 would be a non-lethal temperature, < 28 °C, for trout at a minimum elevation of 491-511 masl, while this was predicted to be 545-701 masl for the year 2050. Predicted hourly water temperatures of 28°C (non-lethal) may occur at minimum elevations of 868-898 masl in 2025 and at 908-1028 masl in 2050, reducing a 21-23% and 23-31% its current altitudinal distribution range, respectively, thus avoiding its presence at the type locality (San Antonio de Murillos).
