COVID across the border: A very dire picture in Mexico
Posted on
Over the weekend, I met with a couple of Mexican friends passing through Dallas. They were on their way to visit their daughter in Houston.
To say the least, they painted a dire picture of COVID in Mexico, from access to the vaccine to hospital beds.
Mexico's National Institute of Statistics and Geography (Inegi) reported on Wednesday, Jan. 27, that 44.9 percent more people died of covid-related issues from January through August of 2020 than initially reported by the Mexican government, adding another layer of discord to the nation's dismal handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
