Mexican Governor claims the poor are immune to COVID-19
Yesterday, Puebla Governor Miguel Barbosa sparked criticism after saying that the majority of people infected with COVID-19 are “ wealthy . (…) If you are rich you are at risk, if you are poor you are not, we the poor are immune .” However, we’ve been told that the Governor possesses several properties in Mexico City and Puebla , which are worth millions . His portfolio includes a home once owned by President Miguel de la Madrid, which Barbosa bought for MXN $10 million. So Barbosa is quite fortunate: he is rich, has several properties, and he’s also immune to coronavirus . Anyway, we hope Barbosa takes care of himself, the citizens of Puebla need him to be healthy.
