Mexico remains at the highest level of contagion alert going into the second week of its phased return to normal after seven days that saw the death toll from the coronavirus and new infections hit new highs, the health ministry said on Sunday.
On Monday, Mexico began transitioning towards a gradual reopening of the economy and society, which President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador dubbed the “new normal.”
In effect, however, little changed, with all 31 states and the capital staying in the highest “red” level of alert as the government grapples to get the pandemic . . .
