Nadpisem nemyslím nic ve vztahu k Aboridžincům, kdyby to nějakého ko*ota třeba napadlo. Ne, kdepak. Jen jsem si při čtení článku vzpomněla na scénu, kdy lidoopi v onom kultovním filmu loví lidi. Tak nějak si představuju odchyt Aboridžinců, kteří se v Austrálii urputně odmítají naočkovat, a jejich umisťování do připravených detenčních kempů pro nakažené.
Health authorities in South Australia are racing to organise quarantine „camps“ for Aboriginal people unable to quarantine at home. A tender issued by SA Health this week sought companies able to manage facilities in regional centres like Port Augusta, Port Lincoln, Renmark and Mount Gambier in the event of an outbreak…
„Some Aboriginal communities‘ sociocultural practices may place them at higher risk of transmission because they involve mobilisation and participation in communal cultural activities,“ the health document said.
The tender called for the provision of health services like daily COVID-19 testing and „camp services“ including food, waste management and cleaning. The successful contractor would also have to provide translation and cultural support, including printed material in different languages.
Despite repeated warnings over more than a year, a COVID-19 outbreak took hold in Wilcannia in August. Many were unable to isolate because of overcrowded housing. Authorities in New South Wales eventually sent in a fleet of motorhomes, but not before the town’s outbreak became the worst per capita in Australia.
Earlier this week health services expressed serious concern about the low rate of vaccination in some of SA’s Aboriginal communities. In Port Lincoln, only 34 per cent of Aboriginal people were fully vaccinated.
Ceduna’s fully vaccinated rate sits at 36 per cent.
Ano, až sem naše civilizace dospěla. Až sem. Kam se posuneme dál, ptám se s velkými obavami. Myslím, že příště by mohli ty neposlušné Aboridžince rovnou postřílet, krysy jedny neočkovaný.
