The WHO has applauded the work and the strict measures put in place by the Mexican government to combat the spread of the coronavirus.
“The WHO wishes to congratulate the government of Mexico for the firm social and public health measures it has adopted to date, including the imposition of strict restrictions on movement and the temporary stoppage of the activity of large companies to limit the spread of Covid-19,” the international organization wrote in a letter posted Tuesday to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Twitter account, congratulating President López Obrador on his government’s response to the health crisis.
Although Mexico has been criticized for not going far enough to help small and medium sized businesses through this crises, the WHO has applauded the financial aid plan put in place by the government.
