1. That COVID vaccines resist the new variants
The speed with which the Delta and Omicron variants are increasing infections has generated concern around the world. In Mexico, although 89% of the population over 18 years of age already have a complete vaccination scheme, the challenge for this year is to receive the third booster dose.
Since December 24, 2020 and until December 29, in Mexico 148 million 689,393 doses have been applied to 81 million 915,851 people.
The general desire is that the vaccines that have been applied provide resistance to the virus.
2. Better security
Violence is an issue that the current government has not been able to resolve. So far in the administration of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador there are more than 105,000 malicious homicides and femicides and it is in the years 2019, 2020 and 2021 when Mexico has had its three most violent years.
The President of the Republic himself has recognized that insecurity is an issue in which the expected results have not yet been achieved, although he said that towards the end of the year there was a slight decrease in the crime of intentional homicide, particularly in eight of the nine states that concentrate more than 60% of violent deaths.
For 2022, the improvement in public safety is one of the wishes of Mexicans. According to the National Survey of Urban Public Safety (ENSU) of the Inegi of September 2021, 65% of the urban population feels unsafe.
3. Stop corruption
Although it is one of the struggles that President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has led since he came to power, eradicating corruption remains one of the wishes of Mexicans, since this 2021, each victim of a dishonest act cost on average 3,822 pesos.
Before starting his government, López Obrador said that he would fight corruption as the stairs are swept, from top to bottom, however, it is still an unfinished business.
According to Inegi, during 2019 Mexico paid 12,769 million pesos for acts of corruption, a figure 64% higher than what was lost due to dishonest acts in 2017.
The National Survey of Civic Culture of Inegi also shows that 54% of people over 15 years of age see corruption as one of the three most important problems that the country faced during 2020.
