the Navajo Nation

The Navajo Nation has the third-highest COVID-19 infection rate in the U.S., after New York and New Jersey. The pandemic is exposing a longtime lack of federal funding for Indian Country health care. Tribal leaders are using contact tracing to track where the virus has spread. Conditions make the work difficult, and Navajo Nation leaders are now suing the federal government for their fair share of federal COVID relief money.
