La pandemia por COVID-19 y sus efectos siguen siendo una situación de gravedad, sobre todo ahora con nuevas variaciones del virus que se extienden por todo el mundo. La segunda ola del virus está perjudicando a muchos países y las comunidades Indígenas son algunas de las principales afectadas.

Imagine que la pandemia y sus olas, son como las olas del mar. El número de infecciones por COVID-19 aumenta y luego disminuye. Cada ciclo es una "ola" del virus. Este programa habla del tema y las precauciones necesarias para disminuir el contagio. 

El COVID-19 sigue siendo una situación de gravedad, sobre todo  ahora con nuevas variaciones del virus que se extienden por todo el mundo. En respuesta a esta emergencia y después de mucho tiempo de investigación, pareciera que la solución ha llegado; diferentes vacunas han salido al mercado y están llegando a muchos países. Personas de la tercera edad, médicos, servidores públicos, entre otros sectores de la población, han recibido ya una o dos  dosis.

Después de más de un año, el COVID-19 ha dejado más de 3,382,561 muertes en el mundo según el sistema de monitoreo de la Universidad de Medicina Johns Hopkins. Esta crisis sanitaria evidencia el acceso limitado a los servicios básicos de salud, lo cual sigue siendo un reto de gran escala para las comunidades Indígenas de todos los continentes.

This is a public service announcement about the coronavirus or Covid-19 disease outbreak.
While countries all over the world are on lockdown, and panic is the order of the day, this is a time when Indigenous Peoples around the world are encouraged to stay calm, and be strong, in the face of severe adversity.
What is most important to note, is that our elderly are the most vulnerable. We need to take extra precaution to save the lives of the ones who are dear to us, and the ones who have shown us the way to go, who have guided our feet on the path that we all walk.

The Covid-19 Pandemic is upon us, and we all need to adhere to all the hygiene protocols.
While it is important to ensure the well-being of our elders in the time of this global pandemic, let us take care of our children too. If this is new for us, imagine the psychological impact it has on our young ones. Take the time to explain it to them, first hand, as opposed to what they see and hear on social media, television and radio.

While we adhere to the precautionary measures that prevent the spread of the coronavirus, it is important to strengthen the defenses in our body through responsible and healthy nourishment. Having a healthy immune system means that our bodies can fight the virus.
Within the community there are a great variety of foods that grow and are produced that can cover the needs of our families and of those elders who live alone.

Limited access to basic health services remains a big problem for Indigenous communities across all continents. Indigenous populations in many countries have experienced poorer health outcomes compared to non-Indigenous populations. Mainstream health services have not adequately met the health needs of Indigenous Peoples in both rural and urban settings.

After months of clinical trials by many companies in different countries, several vaccines, which are 94-95% effective, have finally been approved and are now making their way to hospitals, clinics and doctors rooms. Successful trials of the vaccines have taken place with medical professionals and the elderly. Vaccines against COVID-19 will be available to us soon.

Covid-19 is still a grave reality, now with a new strain of the virus spreading across the world. When the pandemic first began, we did not expect it to last this long, and no one expected that it would spread so widely and have such a disastrous impact. As we move into 2021, it continues to be crucial to maintain social distance, avoid large groups of people, wash or sanitize our hands and wear masks consistently to stop the spread of the virus.
