Mexico advances in controlling the measles outbreak with 10 million doses

The national response manages to contain transmission with a massive immunization strategy and health fences in key areas.

A Collective Victory in the Health of Mexico

Friends, what powerful news to start the week! Imagine the energy and coordinated effort of thousands of heroes in white coats, working tirelessly to protect our great Mexican family. The Secretary of Health shares with us a monumental achievement: more than 10 million doses of vaccine applied to the challenge of measles. This is not just a number; It is the materialization of an ironclad commitment to collective well-being, a clear demonstration that, when we unite for a common purpose, the transmission curve has no choice but to recede. Let’s celebrate each of those injections of hope!

The Focus of Action and the Strength of Strategy

Do you know the secret to transforming a challenge into a victory? Focus energy where it is needed most. The new cases have taught us a valuable lesson: they are concentrated in communities where, due to various circumstances, the immunization schedule was not complete. States such as Jalisco, Michoacán, Guerrero, State of Mexico and Mexico City have become the epicenter of a health offensive full of determination. But be careful! Instead of pointing fingers, we have decided to act more forcefully. Territorial operations and meticulous epidemiological monitoring have been deployed, because the goal is clear and brilliant: interrupt the chain of contagion forever. Every brigade member who walks a street, every professional who analyzes data, is weaving a stronger safety net for everyone.

The strategy is intelligent and forceful: the vaccine fences. Visualize this act of pure protection: intensively applying doses in 25 blocks around each confirmed case. It is a community embrace of science and solidarity. In addition, the brigades are going house to house, bringing the opportunity to protect themselves directly to the people. And to enhance this effort, coordination is key. Extraordinary meetings between the federation and the states are fine-tuning every detail, especially in light of social mobility in December. We are ready! And best of all: there is a sufficient supply of vaccines, distributed in a timely manner in institutions such as the IMSS, ISSSTE and IMSS Bienestar. There are no excuses, only opportunities to participate.

This moment invites us to deep and optimistic reflection. Health is the most precious gift, and protecting it is an act of self-love and community love. Each dose applied is a firm step towards freedom, towards regaining our peace and our connection without fear. The mistakes or gaps of the past are just lessons that guide us today to be more effective, more united and more resilient. Let’s celebrate that we have the tools, the organization and the will. Now, the final power is in your hands.

Your decision to get vaccinated before traveling or completing your schedule is not just a personal act; It is a ray of light that helps protect the most vulnerable and keep any outbreak at bay.It is the drop that forms the ocean of public health. Let’s transform this season into a global example of collective responsibility and care!

Mexico and PAHO/WHO sign health strategy 2026-2030

Mexico and PAHO/WHO sign agreement to strengthen the health system and reduce the burden of diseases.

Bilateral agreement to strengthen the health system

The Government of Mexico, through the Ministry of Health, and the Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization (PAHO/WHO) signed the Country Cooperation Strategy 2026-2030. The goal: strengthen the national health system and reduce the burden of disease.

The agreement includes priority actions to address non-communicable diseases, cancer and mental health disorders. It also promotes prevention strategies and timely care throughout the population’s life course.

In addition, it seeks to strengthen the stewardship of the Ministry of Health and the coordination between the institutions of the National Health System. The goal is to move towards a model of universal access to quality medical services.

Among the central axes are the strengthening of the capacity to respond to health emergencies, the promotion of health self-sufficiency and the strengthening of the national regulatory authority.

Health Secretary David Kershenobich said:

The strategy will allow national priorities to be aligned with the technical experience of PAHO/WHO, which will contribute to expanding access to health services, with emphasis on prevention, primary care and universal coverage.

The agreement lays the foundations for technical cooperation that addresses the country’s main health challenges in the next five years.

Mexican peso recovers after confirming the validity of the T-MEC

The peso recovers after confirming the validity of the T-MEC until 2036 with annual reviews.

The peso recovers ground against the dollar

The national currency registered an appreciation of 0.4% this Thursday, closing at 17.48 units per dollar in wholesale operations. At bank windows, the greenback stood at 17.91 pesos for sale, breaking a streak of two consecutive days with losses.

The recovery occurs after the continuity of the Treaty between Mexico, the United States and Canada (T-MEC) was confirmed until 2036, under the annual review scheme agreed upon by the three countries.

The details of the official announcement

The Secretary of Economy, Marcelo Ebrard, reported that the first formal review will begin on July 20 with the visit of a US delegation to Mexico. During the virtual meeting with their counterparts from the United States and Canada, Washington’s concern about the trade deficit was addressed.

Ebrard highlighted that more than 80% of Mexican exports to the United States continue to be tariff-free, with no changes to that scheme expected. The next working groups will focus on strengthening regional integration in strategic sectors such as the pharmaceutical industry and semiconductors, with the aim of reducing dependence on imports from other regions.

He specified that negotiations on the future of the treaty are limited exclusively to trade issues and do not include security issues.

AFAC revokes Magnicharters certificate after non-compliance

The airline could not prove regulatory compliance after an extraordinary verification.

Regulatory decision

The Federal Civil Aviation Agency (AFAC) revoked Magnicharters’ air services operator certificate. The measure was notified on June 29, after a regulatory review process.

The Secretariat of Infrastructure, Communications and Transportation (SICT) reported that the company’s right to a hearing was respected throughout the procedure. It was granted legal deadlines to present information and evidence that demonstrated compliance with current aeronautical regulations.

However, the documentation provided was insufficient. The airline was unable to prove that it met the necessary requirements to continue operating as a provider of passenger air transportation.

Origin of revocation

The decision derives from an extraordinary major verification carried out in January 2026. In it, non-compliance with the regulation of the sector was detected. This led to formal requirements and, subsequently, the temporary suspension of operations in April, as a preventive measure.

The SICT stressed that the revocation is based on the lack of sufficient evidence on the part of Magnicharters to prove its regulatory status. The company now faces the loss of its certificate, which prevents it from offering commercial air services.
