The first case of COVID-19 in Mexico was detected on March 1, 2020. By the end of the year, the total number of confirmed infections had surpassed 1.4 million. Meanwhile, the number of deaths related to the disease was nearing 148,000. On May 11, 2025, the number of cases recorded had reached 7.6 million, while the number of deaths amounted to around 335,000. The relevance of the Omicron variant Omicron, a highly contagious COVID-19 variant, was declared of concern by the World Health Organization (WHO) at the end of November 2021. As the pandemic unfolded, it became the variant with the highest share of COVID-19 cases in the world. In Latin America, countries such as Colombia, Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico were strongly affected. In fact, by 2023 nearly all analyzed sequences within these countries corresponded to an Omicron subvariant. Beyond a health crisis As the COVID-19 pandemic progressed worldwide, the respiratory disease caused by the virus SARS-CoV-2 virus first detected in Wuhan brought considerable economic consequences for countries and households. While Mexico’s gross domestic product (GDP) in current prices declined in 2020 compared to the previous year, a survey conducted among adults during the first months of 2021 showed COVID-19 impacted families mainly through finances and employment, with around one third of households in Mexico reporting an income reduction and the same proportion having at least one household member suffering from the disease.Find the most up-to-date information about the coronavirus pandemic in the world under Statista’s COVID-19 facts and figures site.

As of August 2, 2023, Mexico was the third Latin American country with the highest number of confirmed cases of COVID-19, reaching over 7.6 million patients. By federate entity, Mexico City ranked first in number of confirmed cases, with around 1.9 million infections recorded by September 21, 2023. The State of Mexico followed with 760,699 reported cases of the disease.

The leading cause of death in Mexico in 2020
In 2020, COVID-19 was the leading cause of death in Mexico. The country reported its first fatal case due to the disease in March 2020. Since then, the number of COVID-19 deaths has increased steadily, reaching 334,336 deaths as of August 2, 2023. These figures place Mexico fifth in the total number of deaths related to COVID worldwide and second in Latin America, just after Brazil.

Mexico’s vaccination strategy Mexico began its vaccination campaign at the end of December 2020, an immunization strategy that prioritized healthcare workers and those most at risk of developing severe COVID-19, such as the older population. With more than 223 million vaccines administered as of August 14, 2023, Mexico ranked as the Latin American country with the second highest number of applied vaccines, while slightly over three quarters of its population received at least one vaccine dose against the disease by March 2023.

Mexico COVID-19 clinical data 🦠🇲🇽

This dataset contains the results of real-time PCR testing for COVID-19 in Mexico as reported by the [General Directorate of Epidemiology](https://www.gob.mx/salud/documentos/datos-abiertos-152127).

The official, raw dataset is available in the Official Secretary of Epidemiology website: https://www.gob.mx/salud/documentos/datos-abiertos-152127.

You might also want to download the official column descriptors and the variable definitions - e.g. SEXO=1 -> Female; SEXO=2 -> Male; SEXO=99 -> Undisclosed) - in the following [zip file](http://datosabiertos.salud.gob.mx/gobmx/salud/datos_abiertos/diccionario_datos_covid19.zip). I've maintained the original levels as described in the official dataset, unless otherwise specified.

IMPORTANT: This dataset has been maintained since the original data releases, which weren't tabular, but rather consisted of PDF files, often with many/different inconsistencies which had to be resolved carefully and is annotated in the .R script. More later datasets should be more reliable, but earlier there were a lot of things to figure out like e.g. when the official methodology to assign the region of the case was changed to be based on residence rather than origin). I've added more notes on very early data here: https://github.com/marianarf/covid19_mexico_data.

Mexico recorded 334013 Coronavirus Deaths since the epidemic began, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). In addition, Mexico reported 7603871 Coronavirus Cases. This dataset includes a chart with historical data for Mexico Coronavirus Deaths.

The dataset tracks the performance of Mexico’s COVID-19 cases. The time period is from the 26th of February 2020 to the 24th of June 2023. The data are sourced from the General Department of Epidemiology of Mexico.

The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has paralyzed our societies, leading to self-isolation and quarantine for several days. As the 10th most populated country in the world, Mexico is on a major threat by COVID-19 due to the limitations of intensive care capacities, about 1.5 hospital beds for every 1,000 citizens. In this paper, we characterize the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico and projected different scenarios to evaluate sharp or gradual quarantine lifting strategies. Mexican government relaxed strict social distancing regulations on June 1, 2020, deriving to pandemic data with large fluctuations and uncertainties of the tendency of the pandemic in Mexico. Our results suggest that lifting social confinement must be gradually sparse while maintaining a decentralized region strategy among the Mexican states. To substantially lower the number of infections, simulations highlight that a fraction of the population that represents the elderly should remain in social confinement (approximately 11.3% of the population); a fraction of the population that represents the confined working class (roughly 27% of the population) must gradually return in at least four parts in consecutive months; and to the last a fraction of the population that assumes the return of students to schools (about 21.7%). As the epidemic progresses, deconfinement strategies need to be continuously re-adjusting with the new pandemic data. All mathematical models, including ours, are only a possibility of many of the future, however, the different scenarios that were developed here highlight that a gradual decentralized region deconfinement with a significant increase in healthcare capacities is paramount to avoid a high death toll in Mexico.

In past 24 hours, Mexico, North America had N/A new cases, N/A deaths and N/A recoveries.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic is first and foremost a health shock, but the secondary economic shock is equally formidable. Access to timely, policy-relevant information on the awareness of, responses to and impacts of the health situation and related restrictions are critical to effectively design, target and evaluate programme and policy interventions. This research project investigates the main socioeconomic impacts of the pandemic on UNHCR people of concern (PoC) – and nationals where possible – in terms of access to information, services and livelihoods opportunities. Three geographic regions were taken into consideration: Southern Mexico, Mexico City and the Northern and Central Industrial Corridor. Two rounds of data collection took place for this survey, with the purpose of following up with the respondents.

Sampling procedure

The ProGres database served as the sampling frame due to the unavailability of other reliable sources. Likewise, the sample was stratified by location and population groups based on country of origin helping to account for the different economic realities from one part of the country to another, as well as differences between nationalities. Following discussion with the UNHCR country team and regional bureau, three geographic regions were presented for consideration : a) Southern Mexico; b) Mexico City; and c) the Northern and Central Industrial Corridor. Additionally, partners expressed interest in the Venezuelan community as a separate group, primarily residing in Mexico City, Monterrey and Cancun. The population of the four groups represents 67% of the active registered refugees in Mexico. Out of the 35,140 refugee households in the four regions, 26,688 families have at least one phone number representing an overall high rate of phone penetration. Across regions of interest, Hondurans make up the single largest group of PoC in Southern Mexico (38%), and the Northern and Central Industrial Corridor (43%), whereas Venezuelans make up over half of the PoC population in Mexico City (52%). Based on the above, a sampling strategy based on four separate strata was proposed in order to adequately represent the regions and sub-groups of interest: 1. Southern Mexico – Honduran and El Salvadoran PoC population 2. Mexico City – Honduran, El Salvadoran and Cuban PoC population 3. Northern and Central Industrial Corridor – Hondurans and El Salvadoran PoC population 4. Venezuelan Population – Mexico City, Monterey (Nuevo Leon) and Cancun (Quintana Roo) A comparable sub-sample of the national population in the same locations PoC were sampled was also generated using random digit dialing (RDD). This was made possible through the inclusion of location-based area codes in the list of phone numbers, however selected participants were also asked about their current location as a first filter to proceed with the phone survey to ensure a comparable national sub-sample.

Amid the COVID-19 outbreak, the ENCOVID-19 provides information on the well-being of Mexican households in four main domains: labor, income, mental health, and food insecurity. It offers timely information to understand the social consequences of the pandemic and the lockdown measures. It is a project consisting of a series of cross-sectional telephone surveys collected once a month for one year. In addition to the four main domains and a set of COVID19-related questions, the survey includes new key indicators every month to capture the impact of the pandemic on issues like education, social programs, and crime. This is the first dataset of the project, corresponding to April 2020, collected one month after the lockdown began in Mexico.
