In March 2020 he tested positive for COVID-19, from which he later recovered.[2]

Governor Domínguez Servién was accused by Emilio Lozoya Austin, former director of Pemex, in July 2020 of receiving bribes in 2013-2014 to support energy reform legislation.[3][4] Domínguez Servién fired his secretary, Guillermo Gutiérrez Badillo, in August after the latter and a senator appeared on a video receiving money from a director of Pemex. The governor denied having previous knowledge of the incident.[5]
