MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – Mexico will administer the Johnson & Johnson vaccine shots it is getting from the United States to 18 to 40 year olds along the Mexico-U.S. border region with the aim of reopening the shared border by late June, Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard said on Friday.
Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said on Thursday that following a conversation with U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris, the United States had agreed to send Mexico one million doses of Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine against COVID-19.
