MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said on Sunday that he had tested positive for COVID-19, the third known infection, adding that while he was not seriously ill he would take a few days off.<\/p>\n

Lopez Obrador, 69, who had a serious heart attack in 2013, reported mild symptoms from both of his previous bouts of COVID-19 at the height of the pandemic.<\/p>\n

“It’s not serious,” he wrote on his official Twitter account. “My heart is at 100%.” <\/p>\n

Lopez Obrador said Interior Minister Adan Augusto Lopez would host his regular morning news conference. <\/p>\n

In January 2022, Lopez Obrador underwent cardiac catheterization and was found to be in good health. <\/p>\n

Back then, the government said the president has regular check ups that include lab tests, electrocardiograms, stress tests and CT scans.<\/p>\n
