We just told you about contraband veterinary supplies smuggled across the La Union border - but what about the other borders - when are those opening?
Will they still open on February 1st?
While the Minister of Health had previously said that no final decision was made, the prime minister confirmed it today. And while they're still working out the details of the requirements to cross, the PM said that a vaccination is a must if you plan on going shopping at Chedraui and Sam's Club.
Hon. John Briceno, Prime Minister
"The borders is still set to reopen on the first of February at least if nothing big happens but the plan is that we want to open the first of February."

"What sort of regulations are we looking at it?"
Hon. John Briceno, Prime Minister
"Well one of the things, and I think I need to verify, but one of the things I think that we want to say is that you must be vaccinated to be able to cross the border so that's one of the things and hopefully that will encourage more people to get vaccinated, we need to get vaccinated, that's the only way you can protect yourself and we can protect you. The numbers for vaccination has been down now to about 200 per day and we need to do more. If we could get at least to 70% then I think we would be way much better off."
