ABSTRACT
This paper aims to provide an overview of Covid-19 in the Yanomami Indigenous Land (TIY), drawing a parallel between the regions of the upper Marauia river (AM), upper Rio Negro (AM) and the Ajarani and Apiau river valley (RR). To place the pandemic of the new coronavirus in the Yanomami context, we start from the notion of xawara - smoke from the epidemic related to contact with non-indigenous people. This essay also aims to analize the access to health and native strategies to fight epidemics.
