How does earthquake in Mexico city efectsus 2017?

Answer 1

Not much, actually.

Of course, the event was a tragedy, with more than 350 deaths due to several buildings that collapsed in Mexico City, as well as in several communities in the states of Morelos and Puebla. Nonetheless, the Mexican people were relatively well prepared for this eventuality: after the 1985 earthquake, in which over 40,000 people died, several improvements were implemented, such as the revision of building codes and better preparedness by the civil defense organizations and emergency services. In addition, the Mexican society had an overwhelming response to the disaster, becoming in some cases the first to respond to the emergency, and have continued to help those affected with material and economic support.

The earthquake was not so devastating that it disrupted the Mexican economy; although the estimated cost of recovery is around US $ 1.3 billion, it has had the same effect as seasonal hurricanes, such as those affecting Mexico on its southern Pacific, Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean coasts.
