Sumario: | Objective: Analysis of the United States-Mexico Joint Initiative to Combat the COVID-19 Pandemic and its contribution to promoting a secure border in the post-pandemic context. Methodology: Analysis of the North American Plan for Animal and Pandemic Influenza (NAPAPI, 2012) and the Joint Initiative; as are orders issued under sections 362 and 365 of the United States government's Public Health Service Act. Theory: Proposal for a governance model for results and a secure border approach. Conclusions: the absence of effective governance in terms of the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to the closure of the US border to Mexican residents with US visas, for about 18 months - March 20, 2020 to November 7, 2021- and fundamentally Infections and deaths on the United States-Mexico border did not decrease in the context of the border closure and under the binational vaccination policy.
