President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said that the World Health Organization (WHO) has not recommended vaccinating children under 12 years of age; However, he promised to review the matter due to the importance for his government of protecting the population with the biological anticovid.

“We have to see if that was what the World Health Organization recommended, because I have information from those responsible for the health sector in our country who even maintain the opposite.

Hopefully and today it will be reported, because the WHO defined the priorities, which are exactly what we are carrying out in Mexico, he pointed out at the morning press conference at the National Palace.

He stressed that despite the criticism of conservatism, the country is in the 10th place in availability of vaccines and in the 23rd (of a list of 30) among the nations with the most deaths from covid.

I mean, responded to a reporter, what you propose has no basis; According to my information, the WHO did not say it, but we are going to clarify it and we are going to do what they recommend..

He regretted that his opponents do not take into account the statistics of the effort made to strengthen the national vaccination plan and, instead, some lie how they breathe.

He asked his team to disclose the data on the doses applied the day before (530 thousand 261 on Tuesday).

This is what we are dedicated to; However, he added that in this pandemic, in addition to addressing health issues, “we have faced a whole perverse information campaign, because it is not that people’s lives matter to them, but money, because as the late Héctor Suárez said , ‘there is not, there is not’. So they go all out.”

He also showed the table of the countries with the most deaths from covid with respect to the size of their population.

First place, Peru. Unfortunately, our Peruvian brothers, this is the average per million inhabitants, 6,287 deaths from the pandemic. And from all of America, Brazil (on the site) 12; Argentina, 17; United States, 18; Colombia, 19; Paraguay, and then Mexico.

wise policy

So, he insisted, “we have to get vaccinated. I believe that the vaccination policy was correct and, of course, it was a blessing to have the vaccine in time in the world, because we are seeing that those vaccinated have more protection.

That was very important, do not (must) forget it. Now with the new variant, infections grow, but not hospitalizations and fewer deaths. Yes, there is growth in hospitalization, death, but not the same, and this is due to vaccines.
