The pandemic has hit Native Americans particularly hard. The barriers to connectivity in tribal communities that impact public health are wide-ranging, including little to no connectivity and vast remote areas with underserved communities.Although these challenges make getting accurate information to tribal members difficult, there are solutions that can break down these barriers, and lead to better community outcomes. For example, by marrying multiple technologies, tribal communities can connect to promote vaccine distribution and testing, enable public safety for members, and help to bring the community together.These were the key themes in the second part of our Critical Communications in Tribal Communities podcast, hosted on Government Technology Insider, where Walter Murillo, CEO at Native Health; and Jeff Schweitzer, 5G Innovation Architect at Verizon, discussed this topic further.
