There’s also this to consider:
"Mexico has fewer than 500 confirmed Covid-19 cases and the US over 65,000."
Mexico has also done next to no testing and has imposed no real mitigation measures. To pretend this is valid comparison is absurd. https://t.co/gTfQn77rX4

The media might want to point out that not-so-trivial detail when reporting on this story.
