I've been given to understand that Latin America in general has a high proportion of low wage workers who are basically gig workers and have nothing to support their families if they don't go to work and so all the quarantine efforts of those countries are essentially meaningless cause so many workers simply have to go out into public because they have no choice. Mexico is one of those countries as far as I know so perhaps you've noticed poor people on the streets doing jobs rather than staying home.
