"I will get vaccinated with the AstraZeneca vaccine," RIA Novosti quoted Obrador as saying at a press conference broadcast on the government's YouTube channel.
According to him, such a step will help give people confidence.
He noted that a campaign has been launched around the AstraZeneca vaccine proving that it does more good than harm.
On January 25, Andrés Manuel López Obrador announced on his Twitter that he had contracted the coronavirus.
