Sheinbaum defeats López-Gatell

Six months after the COVID-19 pandemic struck Mexico and killed over 76,000 Mexicans, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said authorities would modify the strategy implemented to handle the pandemic. The President said that although contagions and deaths are decreasing, his administration will intensify its efforts to visit every home in a bid to register people who might have contracted the virus and convince them to go to a hospital.

Perhaps López Obrador is now listening to other opinions, and not only to Dr. López-Gatell .
