Mexico&rsquo;s handling of the pandemic has been largely driven by its president, Andr&eacute;s Manuel L&oacute;pez Obrador, and his desire to keep the economy open. That&rsquo;s meant few restrictions and a &ldquo;return to normal&rdquo; even before vaccines. The approach hasn&rsquo;t come without costs, particularly to the country&rsquo;s health care system.
