Health as “a fundamental human right”, should not be subject to the pursuit of profit, Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador while addressing the G20 Summit.

“Health is a fundamental human right that the state must guarantee, putting aside the profit motive,” which has been made clear by the raging Covid-19 pandemic, Xinhua news agency quoted the President as saying on Saturday.

“Medical care, vaccines and medicines must be free and universally applicable, as established by Mexico’s resolution approved at the United Nations,” Lopez Obrador added.



In his four-minute message to the virtual summit, the Mexican leader pointed out that another lesson learned from the pandemic is that healthy eating habits should be promoted as a way to prevent disease and that those suffering from hypertension, diabetes and obesity are most vulnerable to the deadly virus.
