The Ministry of Health (Ssa) reported that in the last 24 hours, Mexico registered 16,133 new infections of COVID-19, with which it added 5,923,086 total cases of the disease since the beginning of the pandemic.
Today's infection rate is the highest one-day total since February.
Likewise, it reported 24 deaths from the disease, with which the country already accumulates 325,511 deaths from the virus.
The surge in infections is a sign that another wave of the virus is spreading rapidly across the country, experts say.
