De xawara, estratégias nativas e a pesquisa antropológica na Terra Indígena Yanomami

The purpose of this report is to describe the main impacts of the new corona virus and the work of the anthropologist in the Yanomami Indigenous Land. The identification of a historical continuity of State action to eliminate indigenous people takes shape in the omission of illegal activities such as gold mining, deforestation, and precarious access to health. Based on these adverse factors, several native strategies against epidemics and contagion are elaborated from displacements to the forest and far from areas close to the non-indigenous population. These strategies aim the social isolation from areas of greater contagion. Therefore, in the face of a new risk of genocide, the need to continue anthropological research is pointed out, despite the impossibility of field research in indigenous lands
