International Organizations Amplify Indigenous Peoples' Demands in Response to Coronavirus Pandemic - Amazon Watch

International Organizations Amplify Indigenous Peoples' Demands in Response to Coronavirus Pandemic - Amazon Watch: COVID-19 poses a mortal threat to Amazonian indigenous peoples. As of April 7th there have already been at least 1,868 cases of the disease in the region and 59 deaths. Those numbers are likely to explode in the coming weeks, and we need to take action now to prevent more deaths.

    If Not Here Then Where, Now Then When, You, Who?

    Rump, his admin., are ‘using’ the corona virus
    as multiple means to their plethora of ends.
    Many, many ends, ends of lives, animal, humane
    and otherwise, will be taking place due to their
    modus operandi. How much will it matter how
    "close and together" we've become if there’s
    250,000 less humane, if a % of the remaining
    don’t vote in the election in the Fall because
    the “virus will come back with a vengeance,
    for a lot of people will go back to operating
    as if it’s gone, just because things got better
    by Summer”, out of fear of dying or causing
    the death by pandemic of their family, friends,
    and a king-kong sized terrible-two gets re-
    installed into the Black-house? If you're not
    taking bullets you're making them. 'The big
    fix' is in, if it ain't fixed don't break it.
    Social distance, wear masks, protect and GOTV,
    viva la vida, viva la evolucion :) reality


    Thanx for all you do; have a good eve' :) reality
