The fight to contain Wuhan's coronavirus 2:09
(CNN Spanish) - The Undersecretary of Health Prevention and Promotion of Mexico, Hugo López-Gatell Ramírez, said Tuesday that Wuhan's coronavirus will arrive in the country.
“I guarantee that the virus will reach Mexico. It is not something that I like, but we have to be very clear and say it truthfully, ”said the official at a press conference with President Andrés Manuel López
Obrador
“In China the epidemic continues to grow. This is expected and will continue to grow worldwide because there is no mechanism by which this epidemic can be completely contained, ”he said minutes before. “In public health phenomena, you never have to lose your attention, your eyesight, but that does not mean distressing more, worrying more, you have to maintain a careful balance between knowing that there is a problem to address and address and say so clear and transparent, but not panicking, panic is very negative to respond in order to health phenomena. ”
