Health Reform/Coverage
León-Cortés, Fernández, and Sánchez-Pérez noted that before the health reform plan of 2012-2018, the E. Peña Nieto’s administration took action to help the Mexican population, which was facing a large health crisis. Sustainability of life was at an all-time low and impacted many. The Administration had high hopes that the health reform plan would offer better healthcare for the lower income population of Mexico with the idea of providing better healthcare deals when it came to health issues. The population of Mexican families in poverty struggled with healthcare benefits due to their labor status. At the end of 2018, the Sistema de Protección Social en Salud (SPSS – Social Health Protection System) gave most of the lower income families of Mexico access to better benefits. Health reform in Mexico was developing as they learned from trial and error. Many public healthcare facilities were changing this reform by providing greater healthcare services. There was much investment into completely reforming many of its original foundations which included advancing medical technology and better resources for the healthcare facility members.

Current Issues
Mexico is facing a steady incline of cancer across their low-income population, mostly with breast cancer and health facilities were taking a major hit to combat it. As more advanced technology for cancer development was released, studies showed a huge decrease in breast cancer related deaths as health facilities insisted more people to get regular checkups. Many people of Mexico are continuing to move into larger cities in which the smaller rural and urban comminutes are becoming increasingly overcrowded. With the new growth in population the cities are struggling to build and provide housing only for this to skyrocket air pollution rates. Calderón-Garcidueñas noted that many of the young children's nervous systems were under attack which alarmed many not just over children's overwhelming health concerns, but adult health issues as well. Even though the Mexican Healthcare system has improved greatly over many years of reform, it has been incredibly unattainable with the cost for healthcare when it comes to out-of-pocket situations. International Journal for Equity in Health explained that this is not the only problem the population of Mexico is facing, many of the hospitals are delivering low quality services, not enough medicine to treat illnesses, and mistreatment.

Sentence I'm adding:

With Jorge L. León-Cortés research of the background into Mexico's past, it was noted that from 2012-2018 there has been an intense uprising of transmittable diseases and very long-term illnesses in the Mexican population with their current life expectances and mortality rate.
