Many tribes in the U.S. have higher vaccination rates than other ethnic groups. For some reservations, that number is
as high as 95 percent. And high vaccination rates aren t the only way indigenous communities have been aggressive in combating COVID-19.
As soon as the pandemic hit, the Northern Arapaho tribe immediately implemented contact tracing, social distancing, curfews and other measures. Meanwhile, the Northern Arapaho Business Council gave tribal members permission to quarantine in the casino for those living in crowded conditions.
Wind River Cares CEO Richard Brannen said these efforts helped slow the number of cases and deaths.
