Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum called for a full investigation after eight newborns died in neonatal intensive care units at two government-run hospitals in the states of Jalisco and Durango, cases that have raised questions about infections detected among some of the infants.
Sheinbaum described the deaths as "something serious" and said the investigations must be pursued "to the fullest extent," as health officials work to determine what happened at the two hospitals operated by the Mexican Social Security Institute, known by its Spanish acronym IMSS.
