The present study aims to analyze how the government and the Brazilian Supreme Court are dealing specifically with the situation of indigenous people in the global pandemic scenario of COVID-19. The Brazilian indigenous people, a group vulnerable and marginalized, face specific and even greater problems in the fight against coronavirus for several historic reasons, such as the existence of trespassers in their lands, logistics for the treatment of the disease in remote locations, and misleadings and failures, commissive and omissive, in public policies, potentialized for the socio-epidemiological characteristics of the group. This study will turn to the analysis of the constitutional remedy filed by Articulation of Indigenous People of Brazil (ADPF 709) and the Brazilian Supreme Court structural injunction relief with the objective that the government take specific measures to protect the indigenous people in the global pandemic scenario. The Court ruled to establishing sanitary barriers, determining a situation room and a mixed monitoring committee, among another measures. |
