MEXICO CITY—Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador returned to his daily morning news conferences Monday following a two-week absence after catching coronavirus, but vowed not to wear a mask or require Mexicans to use them.
“There is no authoritarianism in Mexico … everything is voluntary, liberty is the most important thing,” López Obrador said. “It is each person’s own decision.”
López Obrador revealed he received experimental treatments, which he described only as an “antiviral” medication and an anti-inflammatory drug.
The president also revealed that he twice tested negative in late January in rapid tests that are widely used in Mexico, before a more thorough test—apparently PCR—came back positive the same day.
“I came through well, healthy,” López Obrador said, noting he had been doing breathing exercises as well. “We are back on our feet again, in fighting style.”
Many residents of Mexico City have been unable to find beds at Mexico City’s overcrowded hospitals, and have been forced to treat sick relatives at home. López Obrador was treated at the apartment where he lives in the city’s National Palace.
Despite Mexico’s dearth of vaccines—the country hasn’t received new shipments in weeks, and is down to its last 55,000 doses—López Obrador repeated his faith that the country will get enough vaccines from Pfizer, Russia, China, and India to vaccinate all Mexicans over 60 by the end of March.
That would imply the daunting task of giving about 15 million people at least one dose in just a month and a half.
López Obrador has held his daily news conferences almost every working day for more than two years, and this was the longest he has been absent from them.
SOMETIMES I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK, HE IS A LOVER OF SOCIALISM BUT HE IS AGAINST GLOBALISM, THE SAME HAPPENS IN NICARAGUA, ORTEGA IS A FUCKING COMMUNIST, BUT HE HAS NOT CLOSED THE BUSINESS, AND THE ECONOMY EVEN THOUGH THIS ON THE GROUND IS STILL ACTIVE .
Was the only thing I heard at the time. "He has covid! He has covid! Ha ha ha. That's what he gets!"
I'm going to guess I won't hear a peep about his recovery, same as almost every single celeb.
You know it’s bad when you’d rather live in Mexico
The year is 2026. Mexico has completed building the wall to keep deranged, leftist, mask-worshipping Americans out. We have reached peak clown world.
Seriously. What the fuck? Bizzaro, clown world twilight zone.

Crazy the Mexicans are more American than we are
So it's official. Mexico is now a freer country than the United States. Thanks leftists.
So when do we start hopping the border?
We are going to be running to Mexico if Biden gets much worse
Sounds like someone is trying to MMGA?
This sounds like great justification to build a wall.

WHAT WORLD DO WE LIVE IN?
You can still love your country and believe in helping it in different ways.
Id rather a communist who genuinely loves his country and people than a scumbag who is a sell out.
Based Mexico??
He will just defer to the cartels that run the country anyway to keep whipping people that don't comply with the local bosses.
