Sumario:In this conference I intend to discuss how Puyanawa people, my people, understand the new coronavirus in pandemic times and call attention to how we should create our paths in the world. I report the mythical-historical understandings that associate the destruction of the forest with the production of new illnesses. We produce an indigenous science that understands problems and seeks solutions. Indigenous public health services fail to understand the importance of dialogue with indigenous sciences. They don’t question in depth or trigger the concepts of uniqueness and peculiarity. Problems compound with fragile health services and the disqualification of indigenous sciences. But, we insist with our sciences when discussing to present safe paths for the indigenous “bem viver” (good life).
