Mexico City, Oct 13 (SocialNews.XYZ) Mexico's ongoing third wave of Covid-19 has shown signs of abating over the past 10 weeks, Undersecretary of Prevention and Health Promotion Hugo Lopez-Gatell said on Tuesday.
According to the health official, indicators began this week with a 30 per cent decline, representing the "most sustained" drop registered since the onset of the pandemic here in late February 2020, Xinhua news agency reported.
