COVID-19 'testing blitz' begins in Arizona -

[asiliveandbreathe]

More than three months after Arizona identified its first case of COVID-19, the state has begun a "testing blitz" to help more people learn whether they are infected.

3 MONTHS after first case identified...no wonder AZ seems like business as "usual"...

As of Saturday, the Kaiser Family Foundation listed Arizona as 51st out of all 50 states and the District of Columbia for its number of COVID-19 tests with results per 1,000 people. The national average is 19. Arizona's number is 9.9 per 1,000.

1% of the Arizona population had been tested for COVID-19 as of Friday, when the Arizona Department of Health Services was reporting nearly 8,000 positive COVID-19 cases and 330 deaths.

They expect a spike in positive covid19 cases..ya think..the orange anus coming to AZ..NOW we get testing...

1. Well,remember your out break was

on the Reservation towns in and around the Four Corners. And in Arizona as well as Utah,oh golly,we know nothing about that Area.

2. Just look at Gallup NM..our Native American Indian communities are being

hurt, and just add nursing homes, prisons, meat facilities..this is so frightening..

3. For me,I

personally have interacted with hundreds of Reservation Members through my years working Retail part time. One sees through the eyes of those who you take the time to listen to. For myself,having two of the Reservation Members as fellow Store Employees and those two young Ladies were daughters of one of the Tribal Elders. One receives a true education in Navajo Culture and History.

The real Criminal issue is,how the States of Utah,Arizona and to some extent,Colorado and New Mexico fail in their efforts to honor Treaties and only Exploit the Native Population for the benefit of some Corporation or Political Entity who fosters oppression via Religion and Economic Means.

4. Indeed, we have treated our American Indians so poorly down through history..

From Boston.school trip to Plymouth rock..as the story goes, when the Pilgrims landed, they found and stole the seeds for the next years planting..the Indians would bury the seeds..so much history, from East Coast to West Coast..and we do not look good at all..

I had the good fortune to visit Four Corners, not just to observe the vast vista..I had a conversation with one of the tribal elders..I don't recall what I asked, but I can see him to this day..his demeanor, calm, almost resigned to what surrounded him..I have a small hand carved canoe that he made..

also the annual pow wow at San Xavier Mission del Bac Church in Tucson, Arizona..spectacular..
