Maybe there's credible threat of MANPADs from the cartels? Wouldn't be the first time around, apparently.

Stopping life flights though? The supposed risk of cartels shooting down a helicopter vs the immediate risk of "this guy is going to die if we don't fly him to the nearest trauma center"... That risk calculus doesn't make sense.
