Covid-19 has taken the entire World in its lap and many countries are passing from the same pandemic; details are here in this special report.

The Covid-19 vaccine by Pfizer-Bio N Tech will be the only one used in Mexico for at-risk children aged 12-17, Mexico’s deputy health minister said.

Mexico is expanding its vaccine campaign to children with health issues like cancer, diabetes or cardiovascular disease that make them vulnerable to the virus. 

We can only use the Pfizer vaccine because it is the only one that has already been scientifically proven to be safe and effective in girls, boys and adolescents from 12 to 17 years old,” Deputy Health Minister Hugo Lopez-Gatell added. 

Other pharmaceutical companies in due course also present their analysis and demonstrate the vaccines can also be used in children and adolescents,” he added.
