Abstract

The pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes the COVID-19 disease has been a global health catastrophe, which makes it a natural phenomenon that imposes a sustained crisis scenario and as a moment in which the public policies have been constantly reformed, especially in economic and health matters at all levels of government and affecting all areas of life in society. This scenario of constant change in public policies at the state level allows us to review what the social effects of these changes have been in different entities of the Mexican Republic. To do this, this article will analyze the differences and similarities between states regarding their actions in the face of the health crisis, highlighting the main public policies that were implemented as an emergent response to this critical scenario. Determining with this, which entities have been (more or less) affected, and which have shown greater response capacity.
