NYT - Covid-19 Devastated Many Communities. But Not Cherokee Nation.
The Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma has kept its Covid death rate lower than most American communities’ — even though Native Americans are almost twice as likely to die from Covid-19 as white people are. In this video, we uncover the secret to the Cherokees’ success. But it’s not exactly rocket science. It’s really just a smart, slow but steady commitment to universal health care. Oh, and a long history of having to be self-reliant when the U.S. government fails to step up and provide support.
