The Secretary of Health, Jorge Alcocer, explained that the time change affects the health of the population, due to the fact that it generates sleep and memory problems, fatigue, suicidal ideation, lack of concentration, as well as an increase in the occurrence of heart attacks.
“The possible effect may be greater with the changes caused by the SARS-CoV2 pandemic,” he added.
The secretary considered that the decision to change the schedule is political, so it can be eliminated: “If we want to improve our health, we should not fight against our biological clock.”
