"We can practically guarantee that omicron will end up being one of the variables, of the predominant variants of covid-19 in the world. Of course, it can include Mexico, let's take it for granted, just as it will reach the other countries of the world," said the Undersecretary of Health of Mexico, Hugo López-Gatell.
The person in charge of the pandemic in Mexico adds that the closure of borders or travel restrictions are effective measures that only reduce anxiety, not the spread of the omicron variant of coronavirus.
