Latest News in Mexico: Vaccines, Politics, and Pandemic Effects

It became a joke, they say in the blessed networks. And it is that just last Wednesday, with great fanfare, the director of Conacyt, Maria Elena Alvarez-Buylla, announced in the National Palace: “And we take advantage of this opportunity that the President of the Republic gives us to give you excellent news: We have a Homeland, we already have the Homeland vaccine as a reinforcement, with the data from the final phase being successful, meeting established criteria by the World Health Organization for booster Covid vaccines in this case”. And he added: “In addition, the production cost was much lower than that of other vaccines due to an innovative model of articulation of public-private capacities, being able to do much more with much less.” And it turns out that yesterday, just two days after the announcement, the WHO decreed the end of the emergency due to the pandemic. Phew.

Marcelo and the call

Well, with the news that, for many, the pressure that put Marcelo Ebrard for the definition of rules in Morena, to whom, however, the message of the morenista leader seemed to be addressed, Mario Delgado, not to heat up. And it turns out that the leader of Morena himself announced yesterday the dates for the call for the first official survey of “corcholatas”. It will be in the second week of June, most likely the 15th, after meetings with the applicants. A fact that raises several eyebrows, they tell us, that they already know the above Claudia Sheinbaum, Adam Augusto Lopez y Ricardo Monrealbut not yet Ebrard, with whom Delgado has not tied the agenda, it was reported.

And those who have the long list of opposition candidates in which, to the eye of a good cubero, there could already be around two dozen names, last night they formally added that of the former governor of Tamaulipas, Francisco Javier Garcia Cabeza de Vaca. And it is that the ex-president yesterday made his formal disclosure on video, they tell us, in which he even wanted to put a bit of suspense, because when it seems that he is going to announce that he is not going, at the end he says: “I do not aspire to be a candidate , what I want and can is to be President and that is what I am going to look for, with the support and the hand of the Mexicans”. For many, it must also be said, the announcement was not so surprising, especially since just a few days ago journalistic reports gave an account of mysterious advertisements that appeared on various sites in which the logo of a black cow’s head appears on a black background. white, the same one that yesterday was embroidered on the chest of the Tamaulipas PAN player’s shirt.

Finding in Sonora

“The wait is over here, the wait for my son to come home,” he reported yesterday in a video Ceci Flores Armenta, head of the Collective Mothers Searchers of Sonora, who only hopes that the studies carried out on a skeleton found in a place near the highway in Bahía de Kino, will determine if it is indeed her son who disappeared four years ago. Flores Armenta is one of the best-known search engines, as she has on several occasions reported the lack of support suffered by the families of the disappeared in their efforts to locate their relatives. “The real pain begins, never seeing my son again and having to knock on the door of a coffin to see him,” she also points out in the video. “Son: I am sure that one day I will see you again, I will give you the pending hugs and I will show you what I did to leave a more beautiful country and with less pain”.

It is known that this transport system in Mexico City, where it governs Claudia Sheinbaum, moves 70 thousand daily users. The Uruapan project would consist of 8.6 kilometers of route and would have six stations and would transport 15,000 users.

The pandemic and the catastrophic scenario

Speaking of the end of the emergency due to the pandemic caused by Covid-19 that the WHO announced yesterday, the central message that now remains on the table is not only to turn the page, but to learn the lessons of what happened and, above all, , not neglecting the trail of effects that the pandemic leaves, many of which have not yet been fully measured. Also, they make us see, review the real scope of government strategies and detect errors so as not to repeat them. In our country, the official number of excess deaths accumulated in the period 2020-2022 is 650,602, while the official figure reports 331,365 deaths. Both figures are between 5 and 11 times greater than the 60 thousand that the undersecretary Hugo López-Gatell he calculated, in the worst scenario that he described as “very catastrophic”.
